2024 Tidewater 256 LXF

This 2024 Tidewater 256 LXF is a fully equipped center console built on a fiberglass deep-V hull. Twin Yamaha F150XSA engines with 320 hours deliver 300 horsepower combined, cruising efficiently at 35 knots and reaching speeds up to 45 knots. The boat handles the demands of serious fishing and family use with equal capability.

The layout prioritizes function and comfort throughout. A plush bow lounge and generous stern seating frame the cockpit, which transitions seamlessly between cruise and fishing modes. The console features a companion footrest, black dash panel, and freshwater shower. A bow table provides dining or prep space, while an Engel cooler keeps provisions cold.

Fishing amenities are extensive: 21 rod holders distributed across the hardtop, leaning post, transom, and gunnels; an insulated 22-gallon livewell; macerated fish boxes with 30 gallons of capacity; and a raw water washdown. Storage includes bow boxes and insulated cooler space totaling 70 gallons combined. Access is easy via a starboard dive door with ladder, transom walkthrough door, and telescoping transom ladder.

The boat carries a complete electronics and comfort package: Yamaha CL5 gauge, JL Audio MediaMaster 50 with six speakers, subwoofer and amplifier, SCANSTRUT wireless phone charger, underwater RGBW lighting, LED spreader lights, Lectrotab trim tabs, and a power-actuated windshield vent. A Pro-Fish recessed windlass with Lewmar plow anchor and SeaDek marine mat flooring throughout round out the specification. A China head with pump out completes the onboard facilities.
