2009 Edgewater 318CC

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the 318CC feels bigger than her number suggests. The generous beam keeps the crew spread out, with deep bolsters and high gunwales that feel secure when the seas stack up. The forward seating is genuinely usable underway, not just at the dock, and the console hides a surprisingly roomy head with enough space to change out of wet gear. The helm ergonomics are classic EdgeWater: clear sightlines, easy reach to the throttles, and plenty of space for additional electronics. Wide walkarounds make it simple to chase a fish from bow to stern, and the transom design offers clean access to the water for both divers and swimmers without sacrificing fish-fighting room.

This 318CC is dialed in for waters where you might run from inshore channels out to the edge of the bluewater in a single day. The hull is comfortable at the speeds you need to beat afternoon chop, while still being efficient enough for long runs to distant reefs and wrecks. Abundant insulated storage lets you switch easily between family sandbar days and serious offshore trolling. The open, uncluttered cockpit is ideal for kite spreads or bottom rigs, and the high freeboard keeps everyone drier when the breeze is up. It’s a capable, confidence-inspiring platform for local cruising, diving, and fishing in a wide range of conditions.
