2015 Edgewater 245 CX

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the 245 CX punches well above its size in usable space. The deep cockpit and high freeboard give families and crew a secure, dry ride when the chop kicks up, while the wide walkthrough and generous bow seating make it easy to move around without feeling crowded. Storage is tucked everywhere—under seats, in-floor, and in the consoles—so gear, tow toys, and tackle all have a home. The hull’s variable deadrise design lets you carve confidently at speed yet stay stable at rest when you’re rafted up or working a drift. Thoughtful touches like stainless hardware, easy-clean surfaces, and wide swim platforms round out a boat that’s clearly built to be used often, not babied.

This 245 CX shines in waters where conditions can change from glassy to gusty in a single outing. Its deep, confidence-inspiring hull lets you run comfortably through afternoon chop to reach offshore structure, yet the boat is still compact enough to slip into tighter inshore coves or shallow sandbars. The dual-console layout gives passengers wind protection on cooler mornings and open, breezy seating when the sun is high. With ample rod storage, insulated fish boxes, and generous seating, it transitions seamlessly from an early fishing run to a lazy afternoon cruise. Fuel efficiency and manageable size make it easy to trailer, store, and launch at a variety of local ramps and marinas.
