EdgeWater’s new 230CX dual‑console crossover model blends standard features such as integrated swim platforms and a retractable bow table with an insulated fish box, underwater LED lighting, and a 12-gallon livewell to deliver a multipurpose platform.
The smallest of EdgeWater’s crossover lineup—all of which are under 30 feet—the 230CX features the company’s single-piece infusion construction and powder-coated aluminum hardtop. The vessel’s other standard fishing amenities include undergunwale rod racks and freshwater and raw-water washdowns.
“What some boat manufacturers call luxury or custom, we call standard,” says Jennifer Butera, EdgeWater’s president and CEO. “There’s a need for all these features; why make that a special request?”
