This calculator excludes financing, depreciation, purchase taxes, closing costs, and expenses you have not entered. The cash-purchase figure assumes you pay the full purchase price upfront. Maintenance is a budget allowance; actual spending may differ. Your entries are not saved by this calculator.
How the estimate works
Annual running costs equal fuel per outing multiplied by outings per year, plus twelve months of storage, annual insurance, maintenance, recurring fees, and other running costs. Monthly costs equal that total divided by twelve. Cost per outing spreads the annual running budget across your planned outings. The boat’s purchase price is added only to the first-year cash-purchase figure.
