2017 2017 Edgewater 280CC

Step aboard and you’ll see why the 280CC has such a loyal following. The wide beam and deep-V hull give you a confident, dry ride when the afternoon chop kicks up, while still staying nimble around tight marinas and sandbars. The helm layout is clean and intuitive, with great sightlines whether you’re running on plane or easing up to a dock. Forward seating with backrests invites the crew to stretch out, and the console offers enough space and finish to feel more like a small cabin than a simple head compartment. High freeboard and deep cockpit sides keep everyone feeling secure, from offshore runs to lazy raft‑ups.

This 28-footer is tailor-made for local waters that demand versatility in a single hull. The 280CC’s offshore pedigree lets you comfortably chase pelagics beyond the inlet, yet its draft and nimble handling make it just as at home along shallow bays, spoil islands, and sandbars. Abundant insulated storage and fishboxes suit both serious anglers and family cruisers who pack heavy for full days on the water. The generous shade, forward lounge space, and wraparound bow seating turn it into a social hub at anchor. When afternoon storms roll through, the solid build and predictable handling inspire confidence getting home.
