When it comes to Fiberglass Fishing Boats, Blackfin is a name that has perennially been associated with quality, performance, and oceanic innovation. With the arrival of the 2023 Blackfin Boats 252DC, the company has once again cast a formidable challenge to all its competitors.
One of the key selling points of the 2023 Blackfin Boats 252DC is the superior build quality that the brand is known for. This is echoed in the use of Advanced Carbon Fiber Technology for the hull laminate, and Closed Mold Technology for the finished fiberglass hatches. Combined with the Core Rigid Technology in the molded composite stringer grid, the boat is destined to provide a robust and secure ride.
The boat features luxurious and practical elements in its cockpit. The inclusion of an insulated baitwell, complete with cutting board lid and blue/white light is a testament to the thoughtful design of Blackfin. Designed with a total of 12 stainless steel drink holders, dual 12V outlets with USB connections, and an in-floor storage with a fiberglass hatch, the cockpit presents an incredible synergy of convenience and class.
Further enhancing the convenience is the boat's stacked electrical systems. A dual on/off battery switch and individual circuit protection ensure safety and efficiency. User entertainment isn't compromised either, with a fantastic Fusion stereo system, satellite-ready AM/FM radio, and six 6.5 JL speakers, clearly outlining a great emphasis on enhancing the boating experience.
The 2023 Blackfin Boats 252DC doesn’t neglect the importance of a comfortable and enjoyable ride. Ample seating options, including bow and cockpit combing bolsters, bow seat cushions, and a convertible port lounge set with storage, are all thoughtfully provided.
Moving on, the 252DC includes a sizeable 140-gallon fuel tank and the boat's draft with the engine up is 20 inches and is 32 inches with the engine down. The dry weight without engines stands at 5,800 lbs and the maximum HP it can boast is a substantial 450.
When you couple all these features with a competitive dealer cost, it's easy to see why the Blackfin Boats 252DC 2023 is a leader in its category. Above all, this boat combines the robustness and reliability that seasoned boaters demand, with the advanced features and comforts that all modern boaters will appreciate.
In conclusion, the 2023 Blackfin Boats 252DC proves that Blackfin is ever-dedicated to pushing boundaries and delivering the best to its customers. This boat is not just a purchase, but an investment into a superior boating experience.

When our family wanted to purchase our first boat we tried to find information for research. However the only information available at that time was sales brochures. All of the product information originated from the manufactures. The only price we could find was the retail price listings or MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price). Magazines featured articles, and had really great photo layouts, it only offered product description and the (MSRP) retail price.
We went to the dealership where the sales guy held all the cards. The best thing he had going for him was our lack of information. We tried to wrangle on price without any real success. We bought the boat, but we paid too much. After that experience we felt there had to be a better way.
So we started this website because we did not want anyone else to feel disadvantaged like our family did that day. We discussed what we would like to see. We found experts in their fields and started asking questions. We then put together a team to research products and most importantly the dealer price. We started with boats and realized that there was a great need for information on many kinds of large purchase recreational vehicles and products.
Look when you visit a dealership for a boat, motorcycle or camper, if you have not done your research your negotiation for that item will start with the Manufactures Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The highest price you could pay. The sales person will try to see what you know and size you up. If you do not have product knowledge including what the cost was to the dealer – you are going to pay too much.
See Dealer Cost™ offers product information that is in-depth and understandable. You can build your ideal product on line and see what it cost before you walk into a dealership. See Dealer Cost™ gives you the product options and most importantly the cost without the pressure of someone trying to talk you into something.
Knowledge is power.
After you find the product you want on See Dealer Cost™ and configure the options. You can save it to view or reference later. You can also print out what you put together (with the price). In turn you can use this information to negotiate your best deal.
What if the item is used? We are making available all the information we have gathered over the years so you can research to see the original cost. Even on used items you can use our site to negotiate your best deal.
Our passion here at See Dealer Cost™ is to give people power and knowledge. We were at a disadvantage once and we did not like the feeling.
By the way this great idea we had to build a website with this information. We had to fight to be able to bring this information to you. See Dealer Cost™ was supposed to be a one hit wonder. The manufactures magazines that they send to dealers said we would be dead in no time. They pounded their fists on their desks and said the consumer did not want or need this information. They said we would put them out of business. We were sued multiple times by manufacturers for this information. We are still here.
Why would they not want you to be able to see and use this information? They were afraid that you the consumer would be the true winner.
As it turns out – this information has not put anyone out of business. A consumer who is knowledgeable is confident buyer.
So we continue on with our team of experienced and expert people. We constantly update product lines and most importantly the cost so you have information to make your best deal.
We are proud of the team and proud to be able to assist you in your recreational purchase. We do not sell any of the items listed – we just gather the information.
The products include thousands of boats, motors, campers, motorcycles and more. We are constantly working to expand the information we present for you.
We all have families. We hope your buying experience is a better one than our family’s first purchase. Use this website to be a knowledgeable more confident buyer.
We hope we are a valuable resource for you. Enjoy your purchase.
Thanks,
See Dealer Cost™ Team Members
