2019 Edgewater 262 CxSold

The 262 CX shines as that rare family-friendly boat that still feels like a serious angler’s platform. The wide beam keeps everyone comfortable when the breeze kicks up, and the wraparound windshield and tall freeboard give a surprising sense of security, especially with kids aboard. You’ll appreciate the thoughtful touches: a roomy head compartment that’s actually usable, convertible aft seating that flips quickly from cruising lounge to open cockpit, and a well-designed wet bar for snacks and sundowners. Rod holders and a deep livewell hide in plain sight, ready when the bite turns on. It’s a boat that easily pivots from early-morning fishing mission to afternoon sandbar hopping and sunset cruise without feeling like a compromise.

This 262 CX is particularly well suited to the mix of conditions you’ll find in this area. The hull can handle choppy open stretches with confidence, yet the draft and overall length are manageable for exploring shallower creeks and tucked-away anchorages. Twin outboards offer both range and redundancy for longer runs between harbors or island stops, while the dual-console layout gives passengers welcome protection when afternoon winds build. Generous shade coverage, a proper head, and flexible seating make long days on the water more comfortable for family and friends. Whether you’re trolling offshore structure, cruising inter-island, or rafting up in a quiet cove, this model adapts smoothly to the way people actually boat here.
