The most challenging part of describing the EdgeWater 280
Crossover is…where to start.
The Crossover’s dual console, its ample space for
entertaining (or for fighting fish) and
its ambitious amenities hint at the boat’s “do everything” mentality.
This utility boat is practical…yet appealing. It is pragmatically unsinkable and yet….sexy.
The fact is that EdgeWater’s entire Crossover series of
boats truly do offer the fishing
crowd, the cruisers and boating groupies the opportunity to shape their own
experience within an EdgeWater Crossover.

| The Edgewater 280 CX is a true crossover. |
The 280 CX, specifically, is as comfortable in rough
offshore seas as it is inland, pulling a cadre of kiddies on a tube. Neither
mission is neglected as EdgeWater designed the 280 – the flagship of its
Crossover series - to pull double and triple duty.
The most telling feature of the 280 CX’s versatility is the space
designation: there’s a spacious cabin that includes six feet, eight
inches of headroom, a galley, a head with electric toilet and holding tank and
a sleeping berth. Topsides, this Crossover welcomes a crowd with circular
seating for seven in the bow, twin double-wide helm benches port and starboard,
plus a pair of fold-up aft bench seats at the transom, including a tuna door in
the starboard corner.
The boat engineers at EdgeWater don’t neglect practicality
in favor of design; the proprietary “single piece infusion” (SPI) construction
ensures that the hull components bond as one extremely strong and rigid piece. In
addition, the process used to bond the components also promotes resistance to
osmosis, reducing the likelihood that the hull will blister. Another benefit of
the SPI process is the lighter construction, resulting
in better fuel efficiency.
Overall, the 280 CX offers most of what nearly any
recreational boater will need, rivaling not just other boats in its own class,
but many other boats in general.
We welcome you to stop by Modern Yachts’ Hampton Bays or
Westhampton location and check out the EdgeWater 280 CX.
