How this estimate is calculated
Boat type personalizes the illustration only; it does not change the calculation. The large estimate is rounded to the nearest $100. This calculator uses the same model as the Marine Concepts exposure-cost calculator. Annual cost = boat value × category rate × (days exposed ÷ 365) × environment multiplier.
Category rates: gel coat 1.65%; upholstery & canvas 0.77%; mildew, cleaning & detailing 0.93%. Saltwater adds 0.60% for moisture damage. Environment multipliers: freshwater 1.00×, mixed 1.30×, saltwater 1.75×.
Multi-year estimates multiply the annual cost by the selected years, without compounding or a declining boat value. These are illustrative model assumptions, not independently validated predictions. Actual costs depend on boat condition, care, storage and local conditions. Rounded categories may not sum to the displayed total.
