Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
EdgeWater 268CC 2012 vs EdgeWater 335EX 2009: Which Deep-V Boat Fits Your Needs?
Both the EdgeWater 268CC 2012 and the EdgeWater 335EX 2009 are deep-V designs, the first built in composite and the second in fibreglass, so the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 700 hp, the EdgeWater 335EX 2009 has a 200-hp advantage over the EdgeWater 268CC 2012's 500-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the EdgeWater 335EX 2009 carries 300 gallons versus 200 gallons in the EdgeWater 268CC 2012. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
Both boats are rated for 12 passengers - a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
Bottom line: The EdgeWater 335EX 2009 at 32,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The EdgeWater 268CC 2012 at 26,5 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking - a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
