2021 Sea Born LX26 Center Console

Step aboard the LX26 and you immediately feel the extra beam and freeboard working in your favor. The cockpit is wide and uncluttered, with deep, secure bolsters that make running offshore or working a fish around the stern feel confident and composed. The hardtop provides real shade and integrates neatly with the console, so you’re not ducking supports while moving forward. At the helm, the seating is genuinely comfortable for longer runs, with flip-up bolsters and a footrest that lets you lock in when the seas get lumpy. Storage is thoughtfully scattered throughout—under-seat, in-deck, and inside the console—so beach gear, tackle, and safety kit all have a proper home instead of piling up on the deck.

This LX26 hits a sweet spot for local waters, where you might run the inlets in the morning, hop a few nearshore reefs by midday, then slide into a shallow creek for an evening sandbar stop. The hull has enough length and weight to smooth out afternoon chop, but still drafts shallow enough to poke into skinny backwaters on a rising tide. Its generous bow seating and secure freeboard keep family and guests comfortable when conditions turn bouncy, while the open aft cockpit makes drift fishing and bottom drops straightforward. It’s a do-everything platform that suits the mix of nearshore, offshore, and intracoastal cruising common in this area.
