With spacious interiors paired with gutsy performance and
ever-improving upgrades, these boats are designed to please
across the board.
Take the 243DC Dual Console Deck Boat. This bestseller
is where size and NauticStar’s classic STAR performance
meet; a large cabin with room for 12 and capacity for up to
300 horsepower promises a gasp-inducing ride all of your
friends can enjoy. A fully-enclosed walk-in dressing room with
an optional portable toilet and pressurized water system
that services the galley and optional transom shower bring
on the kind of comfort that has people literally staying out on
the water all day long. Wraparound seating in the cockpit is
perfect for natural conversation making, with smooth “leather
touch upholstery” padding the furniture with an added touch
of luxury. New features for 2018 serve to only further distin-
guish this gorgeous deck boat.LOA: 24’ 3”
