2024 NauticStar 224 Bay

The 2024 NauticStar 224 Bay is a 22-foot center console cruiser built for fishing and family use. Its forward deck spans the full beam, with space for two anglers and a trolling motor. The boat carries ten rod holders total—six stainless-steel holders mounted to the center console and four rocket launchers positioned off the seat back.

Storage is integrated throughout the design. The forward console features an operator's seat with stowage beneath, and the bow incorporates a two-step design with compartments for tackle and provisions. The aft fishing deck holds three folding jump seats and accommodates two pedestal-mounted bases for additional seating or tackle stations.

The boat runs on a single Suzuki gasoline engine. A swim ladder is available at the transom, and the removable aft seating converts the boat from fishing mode to a family-friendly day cruiser with open cockpit space.
