When it comes to sport fishing, the state-of-the-art Fiberglass Fish creation by Sailfish Boats, the Center Console Series 242CC 2024, has undeniably captured my attention. Touting revolutionary features, high-end technology and robust construction, the 2024 version of the series has proven to be a game-changer in the realm of watercraft.
The physical construct of the boat is structurally robust. With Carbon Fiber and Kevlar reinforced deck and hull, it ensures durability, demonstrating strength and resistance in demanding maritime conditions. There could be little more assuring than the SailTech Composite Full Length Transom and SailTech Foam-Filled Fiberglass Stringer System for stability. Not forgetting the Exclusive VDS Hull Design, which features a Variable Deadrise Stepped Hull. The rigging tubes and walk-thru transom door with wave guard step adds to the impressive list of utilitarian features.
The boat offers a plethora of exciting features for marine lovers; right from the accessory switch panel with circuit breakers to digital instrumentation to the Fusion Stereo System. Whether you're cracking down on marlin off the coast or coasting into a secluded bay for a day of snorkeling, you'll have all the navigation and entertainment tools needed for a perfect day out on the water. The boat offers a Porta Potti, LED navigational flip-up bow light, electro-hydraulic steering system, Circulating Baitwell with LED Lighting, and spacious fish boxes ensuring all fishing necessities are in place.
The addition of Sailfish engraved transom plate(s), stainless steel propeller(s), and marine-grade stainless steel hardware underscore the boat’s attention to craftsmanship. Its storage highlights are impressive, featuring an Anchor Locker with an Anchor Management System and Vanity Storage in the head. Freshwater Shower and the Self-Bailing Cockpit adds to the convenience of maritime adventures.
The 24 ft long boat has a fuel capacity of 146 gallons which is considerably good. Featuring a maximum horsepower of 300, and a multi-angle deadrise of 22° - 24°, it assures a powerful drive. Furthermore, it has an outstanding passenger capacity of up to 10 people making it an ideal choice for families or groups.
The standard list price of the boat is $144,618 and it's worth every penny. At See Dealer Cost, we provide you the invoice cost that becomes a handy guide to negotiate the dealer's price.
The Sailfish Boats 2024 Center Console Series 242CC 2024 is a sterling example of a full-featured center console fishing boat that does not compromise on comfort, style, or innovative design elements. This boat is a strong contender for those in the market for a top-tier Fiberglass Fish that balances the necessities of hardcore anglers with the comforts needed for a relaxed cruise on open waters.

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
