From the family packing up for a day cruise to the discerning outdoor enthusiast needing a combination of luxury and performance, this boat can deliver both. With a 12-person capacity and a draft of 20 inches, the 280 CX is easily maneuverable through inlets as well as shallow bays. A fuel capacity of 200 gallons with twin 300 Yamahas (one of the most efficient in the industry) will ensure you arrive at your destination fast!
This boat is 7,600 pounds and solid. The Single Piece Infusion hull ensures the lightest and strongest designs in the toughest of water. The boat’s color is infused to ensure UV does not take its toll. And by the way, Edgewater has multiple custom options for the most discerning captain.
Exploring the interior, upholstery is luxury and the company takes pride in seating that is multifunctional and durable. At the helm, you immediately notice the backlit illumination switches and immediate-response dual touchscreen Garmin navigation instruments. Many performance options are standard including LED navigation lights, underwater blue LEDs, and spreader and overhead lights. A key feature of quality for saltwater exposure, tin-plated copper wiring that resists corrosion, is standard. Multiple USB ports from bow to stern will meet the needs of everyone aboard for streaming devices to cellphone charging.
All decks have non-skid flooring that ensures ease of washing down after a big catch without slipping. Gunnels are high, ensuring even the smallest passenger is secure. From the captain’s seat, this boat offers unobstructed visibility. A spacious V-berth cabin provides a captain’s reprieve from the sun, and there’s a secure and lockable spot for rods, reels and expensive tackle. You won’t want much more than what this boat has to offer!
