2017 Cutwater C-242 Coupe Boat in Olympia, WA 98516 US
C-242 Coupe
1 Engine (Yamaha)
24 feet
Gas
Fiberglass/Reinforced
This C-24 is equipped with the more desirable Yamaha 300 HP outboard package, giving the boat strong low-end torque, a quick hole shot, and the ability to get on plane easily while remaining comfortable at lower planing speeds.
BULLDAWG is kept under cover at Zittel's Marina in Olympia and has received regular Yamaha service, including annual service completed through late 2024 with only approximately 15 hours of use since. New trailers are available separately in the estimated $15,000-$17,000 range
This well-equipped 2017 Cutwater C-24 Coupe brings everyday cruising utility, fishing capability, and traileriblity into one compact Pacific Northwest package. With Yamaha 300 HP outboard power, Garmin electronics, radar, bow thruster, Webasto diesel heat, a full pilothouse, private forward berth, marine head, galley, cockpit seating, downrigger pads, BBQ, and a 2024 awning, she is set up for the kind of boating that actually gets used in Puget Sound.
The C-24 Coupe is a clever design: small enough to manage easily, big enough to overnight aboard, protected enough for shoulder-season cruising, and fast enough to cover meaningful water when the weather window opens.
Boarding from the swim platform, BULLDAWG opens into a practical cockpit arranged for cruising, fishing, and entertaining. The cockpit includes cushions, a sink, BBQ, hot and cold cockpit shower, swim ladder, anchor package, downrigger pads, and a 2024 awning. The cockpit is deep and usable, with enough versatility for fishing gear, dockside lounging, or weekend cruising supplies.
The opening aft glass bulkhead and reversible dinette seat are key Cutwater features. With the aft window open, the salon connects directly to the cockpit and the dinette seat can face aft, creating a more social cockpit/pilothouse layout. Close the bulkhead and the boat becomes a protected all-weather cruiser.
Inside, the salon benefits from large windows, sliding side windows, opening roof hatches, LED lighting, and warm maple/cherry-style cabinetry. The dinette seats four and converts to additional sleeping space. Forward, the private stateroom area includes wraparound seating and a convertible berth arrangement, with a marine head nearby.
The galley is compact but capable, with a refrigerator/freezer, microwave, electric stovetop, hot and cold sink with pull-out rinse faucet, cabinetry, drawer storage, and cutting board. Heat is provided by a Webasto diesel forced-air furnace, a particularly valuable option for Pacific Northwest cruising.

BULLDAWG is powered by a Yamaha F300NCA 300 HP four-stroke outboard with 570 hours. The Yamaha F300 is part of Yamaha’s 4.2L V6 offshore family, using electronic fuel injection and a 5000–6000 RPM wide-open-throttle operating range.
Cutwater’s C-24 hull combines a 24-degree deep-V hull form, 11-degree keel pad, reversed chines, a double-stepped running surface, and Laminar Flow Interrupter technology. The design goal is quick planing, efficient cruise, reduced cornering roll, and positive handling in a trailerable cruiser.
