2023 Sailfish 245 DC

Slide behind the helm of this 245 DC and you feel how thoughtfully the space is laid out. Deep, secure seating wraps the cockpit and bow, so everyone has a safe, comfortable perch when the chop picks up. Drains, hatches, and hardware are all tucked and finished cleanly, making it easy to hose down after a salty day. The head compartment is surprisingly roomy for a 24-footer, turning quick sandbar runs into full‑day outings. Foldaway aft seating lets you switch from a wide-open fishing cockpit to a lounging zone in seconds, and the hull’s variable deadrise design gives you a softer, drier ride than most boats in this class.

Waters here can change from glassy to stacked-up in a heartbeat, and this hull is built to handle that with confidence. The deep, secure bow and generous freeboard keep family and guests feeling protected while running inlet chop or afternoon wind waves. Dual consoles shine in this area, where you’re likely to split time between cruising, sandbar rafting, and nearshore fishing. The 300-horsepower outboard offers the punch to run offshore on the right days yet sips fuel on casual harbor hops. Shade from the hardtop, plus smart storage for gear and water toys, makes this model particularly well-suited to long, mixed‑activity days on the water.
