2026 Cutwater C-288 Coupe

The 2026 Cutwater C-288 Coupe is a 33.6-foot fiberglass cruiser built around a contemporary Downeast design. Powered by a single Yamaha 250-horsepower outboard, the boat features a double-stepped deep-V hull with Laminar Flow Interrupters and a 10-foot beam engineered for performance, efficiency, and stability while maintaining trailerable dimensions.

The cockpit centers on a Clear-Path swim platform that wraps around the engine, with generous storage, rod holders, beverage holders, livewell, and an electric grill. Seating accommodates six through a convertible sunset seat, fold-down gunwale seats, and an opening glass bulkhead lounge. Solar panels and sport racks support extended cruising and gear storage for SUPs, kayaks, and bikes.

The salon includes a full galley with stovetop, stainless-steel sink with pull-out faucet, refrigerator-freezer combo, microwave convection oven, cabinetry, and wine and water cooler. The helm station features a Garmin 8612xsv chartplotter, Garmin autopilot, sonar, xHD radar, color engine displays, and twin-lever electronic throttle control.

Below deck, the boat sleeps six across a forward master stateroom, mid-berth, and a private head with shower. Climate control throughout includes sliding overhead hatches and opening portlights. The layout supports cruising, fishing, and remote work.
