Edgewater 265 CC it’s a natural evolution for EdgeWater, moving from its well-regarded line of smaller center console and express boats to a full-blown offshore fishing machine with all the bells and whistles. And in typical EdgeWater fashion, the company has jumped in with style.
The flared bow and sloping sheer make it a pretty boat, but looks aren’t everything. The 265 has significantly higher sides than did previous models, meaning that it was designed for real offshore work in real rough-water conditions, and its aggressive deep-vee hull will let it run with the big dogs when the going gets tough. The 265 is no small boat, but it also rides and handles quite well. The variable-deadrise hull is responsive to trim changes and maneuvers well, while also providing a smooth ride.
The 265 is laid out in a conventional center console design, with raised, wraparound seating in the bow. These seats contain two storage boxes, and the cushions provide comfortable seating. There’s a low-profile bow rail and a stainless-steel bow roller with offset cleats. The anchor locker is also offset in the deck, slightly to port.
The sub-console head compartment has some innovative touches, including a porta potty that slides in and out of a storage compartment on rails. You can also order an optional, full marine head. The compartment also contains a sink, located under the front console seat, and a unique combination toilet paper/tackle storage unit keeps all of the “necessities” at your fingertips.
EdgeWater has built a sizeable cockpit into the 265, with a transom bulkhead setup that contains molded boxes in each corner. The starboard box on our test boat held a bait box/rigging station, while the port box contained a live well. The bulkhead between the boxes features a small transom gate, and the bulkhead itself is relatively thin, allowing you to get as close as possible to the engines when fighting fish.
The 265 is built using EdgeWater’s Permagrid stringer system, which features high-tech carbon-fiber materials in the stringers for maximum strength and weight savings. There’s no wood in the boat, as EdgeWater relies upon honeycomb composite coring materials and a composite transom. The hull itself is made of hand-laid fiberglass. Closed-cell foam flotation provides peace of mind, and the deck is self-bailing.
