Grady White, a brand revered for its commitment to craftsmanship, innovation and attention to detail, recently unveiled its 2023 model – the Grady White Dual Console Series Freedom 255. Being labeled as a 'Fiberglass Fish' by admirers and experts, it brings together the versatility of a dual console layout with the robust performance desired by serious angling enthusiasts, all within a stylish and impressive visual package.
Starting with its design philosophy, the Freedom 255 exhibits a SeaV² hull and deck that are 100% hand laid, a mark of the patience and diligence that the craftspeople of Grady White boats bring to the table. This attention to detail is also reflected in the 316-grade stainless steel, from the low-profile bow grab rail to the deck hardware and stern eyes, withstanding harsh marine environments and lending the Freedom 255 its rugged durability.
The 2023 Freedom 255 boasts an impressive cockpit depth of 27 inches, catering to the sometimes inhospitable ocean conditions that fishing trips can encounter. The boat celebrates an 8'6" beam amidships, a center-line length of 24'9" without engines, and a transom deadrise of 20° (SeaV2 progression), displaying the immaculate symmetry and the aspect ratio providing the boat the perfect balance of stability and agility.
When it comes to horsepower, the 2023 Grady White Freedom 255 isn't left behind, with a maximum HP capacity of 400 – potent enough to get the boat zipping through any type of water body. The boat flaunts a fuel capacity of 135 gallons, ensuring extended voyages without the need for frequent refills. Add to it a passenger capacity of 10 persons, and the Grady White Boat becomes an ideal host for a family get-together or a fun outing with friends.
Finally, the boat proves why it is the ideal 'Fiberglass Fish', with a hydraulic trim tab with indicator and retractor, integrated outboard mounting system with swim platform and ladder, integrated livewell, and multiple rod holders and rod storage racks. The 2023 Grady White Freedom 255 truly upholds the adage that the joy of fishing isn’t only about the catch – it's also about having the right boat.
In conclusion, the Grady White Boat Dual Console Series Freedom 255 2023 is no ordinary 'Fiberglass Fish'; it is a statement of elegance, performance, and innovation, reflecting the very principles upon which the Grady White brand was founded. With its top-notch features and boosted performance capabilities, this fishing boat has set a new standard in the market and confirmed why Grady White remains a top choice among boating enthusiasts.

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
