2002 Edgewater 260 Center ConsoleSold

The 260 Center Console from this era has a reputation for feeling like a much bigger boat once you step aboard. High freeboard and a deep, secure cockpit keep crew comfortable when the afternoon chop kicks up, while the flared bow helps throw spray wide. Helm visibility is excellent, with a simple, practical layout that makes it easy to run whether you’re trolling a contour line or easing into a tight slip. The forward seating and coffin box area offer plenty of room to stretch out between runs, and the wide walkaround makes working lines or moving from bow to stern feel natural and safe. It’s a boat that invites long days on the water without wearing you out.

This 260 Center Console shines in waters where conditions can change quickly from calm mornings to breezy afternoons. The solid, foam-filled construction and generous beam help deliver a dry, confident ride when the wind stacks up a short, confused chop. Shallow enough to explore creeks and sandbars, yet capable offshore when the forecast cooperates, it bridges inshore versatility and coastal range in one package. Ample cockpit space makes it easy to juggle diving gear, beach bags, or a full spread of rods without feeling crowded. For boaters who split time between family cruising, nearshore structure, and long sandbar raft-ups, this model hits a practical sweet spot.
