A Word About Performance

Our test day saw the air temp at 89° with relative humidity at 70% and the seas running at about two feet with a 10 knot wind. We were outfitted with a pair of 200-hp Yamaha outboards. The boat came in with an approximate weight of 7,100 lbs and half a tank of the 140 gallon capacity. There were two people on board and the motors were equipped with a pair of Reliance SES 14.25 x 18 pitch props.

At 5900 rpm, our top speed was recorded as 49.2 mph and at 3500 rpm, our best cruise, at 3500 rpm, came in at 25.5 mph. At that rate of speed, our range came in at 308.5 statute miles with a 10% fuel reserve.

With the choppy conditions seen on test day, we were able to notice how our Edgewater 250 CC handled the sea. Her deep-V hull was quite stable and we experienced little or no slapping. Solid underway, the single-piece construction lived up to its reputation on tight turns, head-on seas, and straight runs with no shakes or rattles.

Observations

The new Edgewater 250CC easily fulfills its prime directive as a serious, offshore fishing boat, equally at ease whether plying deep waters or near coastal excursions. In addition, with the kind of amenities and luxurious touches, she is also quite the appropriate platform for family outings. And with her 8’6” beam, she is road-legal for trailering.

With her hallmark single Piece Infusion (SPI), this to ensure a solid, safe, and robust hull, a lifetime structural warranty, a comprehensive list of standard and optional equipment, and a choice of single or dual Yamaha outboard power, the Edgewater 250 CC will provide the kind of excitement for all aboard this premier builder is known for.
