The NauticStar Boats 2023 NauticStar Boat Bay Series 227XTS 2023 is a masterpiece of maritime engineering that we can't help but laud. As a 2023 model, it assures you of the latest advancements in boating technology and design, characterized by the notable Fiberglass Fish category, and our team at See Dealer Cost is thrilled to bring you a deep dive into what makes this vessel a dream for boating enthusiasts.
The 227XTS is not just about aesthetics - it brings outstanding functionality too. It boasts an impressive length of 22'6" with a beam width of 102" and an approximate draft of 13". This size will comfortably accommodate 8 persons, with a maximum weight capacity of 2000 lbs – talk of a boat that's built for the whole family and friends! This vessel comes with a high max HP of 250 with SeaStar Pro Hydraulic Steering, ensuring you have all the power you need on the open water. Yet, despite its size, the 227XTS remains reasonably light, with a dry weight of around 2,175 lbs – making it practical and efficient.
One striking feature of the new 227XTS is its one-piece molded fiberglass stringer system, which ensures strength and durability of the boat. Complementing this rigidity is the use of Air Assist Chine and Vinyl Ester Barrier Coat, both reputable for their excellent properties in hindering water penetration into the hull. Trust me, it’s a boat built to last, no matter how tough the waters get!
We appreciate the thoughtfulness that NauticStar Boats put into the 2023 Bay Series 227XTS regarding storage options and convenience features. With port and starboard rod boxes complete with organizer offering 5/Side storage, massive front dry storage box, an insulated fish box with a capacity of 30 gallons, and many more, you have plenty of spaces to store your gear. Besides, the vessel has an aft livewell with an aerator and recirculation for your fishing needs.
The attention to detail extends to the standard equipment the boat employs. For instance, the boat employs a SeaStar pro hydraulic steering system with tilt that ensures seamless maneuverability. The LED courtesy lights are a great addition, the SS gunnel rod holders are functional, and the custom SS wheel with power knob ensures driving this baby is a thrill.
Let's talk about the cost because we know that's a crucial factor when purchasing a boat. The Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for this vessel is $67,327, but at See Dealer Cost, we divulge what the dealer pays, giving you a possible edge in your negotiation.

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,
