Boating enthusiasts and lovers of open-air aquatic adventures, rejoice! We are thrilled to introduce the highly anticipated 2023 Crest Pontoon Boat Premium Series Caribbean Platinum 230 SLS – a gem from Crest Pontoon Boats' 2023 series, set to redefine your summer adventures and beyond.
The Crest Caribbean Platinum 230 SLS is not just a boat, but a masterpiece that combines top-tier craftsmanship, outstanding performance, and comfort. This isn’t surprising, as the Crest marquee has for decades distinguished itself for their commitment to manufacturing world-class boats, and this 2023 model doesn’t fall short of that lofty standard.
In terms of construction, this vessel is in a league of its own. The Premium Caribbean is built with .08" Thick Aluminum Pontoon Tubes that are strengthened by .100 Thick Aluminum "M" Brackets. These resilient structures provide an unassailable base for the vessel’s aesthetic and highly functional deck. And like any top-quality pontoon boat, the Caribbean Platinum comes with an assortment of features and luxurious amenities designed to enhance your boating experiences.
The deck has .25" Thick Extruded Aluminum, four-sided Box Beam Channel Cross members with Variable 15" on Center Spacing. This construction design not only adds to the vessel’s strength and durability but also helps in maintaining the boat’s balance during aquatic adventures. The 3/4" - 7 Ply Marine-Grade Decking further accentuates the comprehensive solid build of this remarkable craft.
For enhanced comfort, the Caribbean Platinum comes fitted with innovative, ergonomically designed furniture. A standout feature has to be the 29" High Back Reclining, Swiveling, and Sliding Helm Chair with a Flip-up Bolster ensuring ultimate comfort for the captain. Add to this the irresistibly soft luxury leather or sport upholstery available in Tan or Light Grey – a perfect setting to unwind and enjoy some relaxing time out in the water.
Practicality and convenience are not left out either. A wide array of features, such as the boarding ladder – 4-step stainless steel, telescoping design – and the changing room with Privacy Curtain and Frame, all add up to make your boating experience more comfortable and enjoyable.
On performance and navigation, the Caribbean Platinum 230 SLS excels tremendously. The CP3 performance (2) 25" Round Tubes, (1) 26" Round Center Tube promises an excellent voyaging experience even in challenging marine conditions. More so, the Sea Star EPS (Electronic Power Assist) steering system ensures effortless navigation and maneuvering.
And what is a luxurious pontoon without a top-tier entertainment system? Well, the Caribbean 230 has this covered with an incredible Caribbean RGB-Fusion MS-RA70N Head Unit with Bluetooth, Fusion Link App, USB/AUX, and (4) 6.5" XS-FL651OEM RGB speakers. Time to set the mood and make some memorable moments with your family and friends while out cruising!

The See Dealer Cost Story
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
