The 2026 Cutwater C-288 CB is a 33.5-foot cruiser built around a contemporary Downeast design and powered by twin 250-horsepower Yamaha outboards. The double-stepped deep-V hull incorporates Laminar Flow Interrupters for efficient performance, while the 10-foot beam maximizes stability and interior space without sacrificing trailerable dimensions. A wrap-around swim platform provides safe boarding access around the engines.
The cockpit functions as both a fishing and entertaining space, with rod holders, beverage holders, a livewell, electric grill, and abundant storage. The convertible sunset seat, fold-down gunwale seats, and opening glass bulkhead lounge accommodate six people, while an overhead solar panel supports extended off-grid cruising. Below deck, the salon features a full galley with stovetop, stainless-steel sink with pull-out faucet, refrigerator-freezer, microwave convection oven, and wine and water cooler. Climate control, sliding windows, and opening portlights maintain comfort throughout.
The command station is fully equipped with Garmin chartplotter, autopilot, sonar, and xHD radar, along with twin-lever electronic throttle controls and color engine displays. Separate accommodations sleep six, including a forward stateroom, convertible dinette, mid-berth, and a private head with shower. An elevated helm station atop the hardtop provides a second control position with full Garmin electronics, VHF, and bow thruster controls, seating four and offering panoramic views for navigation or relaxation underway and at anchor.
