For years, Sportsman boats have confidently braved the waters while delivering an unparalleled experience to anglers worldwide. The 2022 Sportsman Boat Open Series Open 242CC is no exception and a true testament to the brand's commitment to quality and functionality. With its intriguing design, remarkable specifications and components, it rides high in the category of Fiberglass Fish.
At first glance, the boat sports an impressive length of 23 feet 8 inches and a pleasing beam of 8 feet 6 inches. Thanks to the SportTech Advanced Fabrication Process, the craft denies the usage of wood, favoring the advanced fiberglass stringer system instead. This not only adds to its longevity but also assures of a lighter frame, with an approx. dry weight of 3,400 lbs.
Power is no issue for the Open 242CC 2022. It houses a maximum horsepower of 300HP, ensuring a smooth sailing experience even in challenging water conditions. With a fuel tank capacity of 118 gallons (approx. usable fuel capacity 110 gallons) coupled with a freshwater tank capacity of 13 gallons, this boat is designed for lengthy stays on the water.
What differentiates this beauty from the crowd is that it is designed with the angler at heart. The boat's electronics/consoles/helm standards are superior to many, featuring a SportLink Electronics Integration System and such impressive components as a Garmin Fusion Apollo RA670 Marine Stereo, Garmin GPSMAP 1243xsv 12" with Bluechart G3, and a Garmin VHF 115 Radio with Antenna. They're then complemented by fostered comfort – a seating/upholstery/pad standards category that includes Premium Sileather Marine Silicone Fabrics and a Premium Dual Chair LP with Flip Up Bolsters.
Efficiency and organization are key to a good fishing trip, and Sportsman Boats understands this. The Open 242CC is well equipped with thoughtfully placed storage units and functional amenities like a 25-gallon rear livewell and a 13-gallon freshwater tank with washdown.
To conclude, every detail of the Sportsman Boat Open Series Open 242CC 2022 points to its standard of excellence. It merges functionality, comfort, and performance in a synergy that appeals to both seasoned and novice boaters. This boat is indeed a true embodiment of Sportsman Boats' quality craftsmanship and commitment to user needs.
Expectedly, it carries a justifiable MSRP of $123,900, given its outstanding capabilities. Everything considered, those in search of a top-tier fishing boat will find the Open 242CC 2022 an investment that promises a gratifying return. Rest assured, your excursions into the vast aquatic realm will be forever transformed!

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
