2026 Tidewater 198 CC Adventure

The 2026 Tidewater 198 CC Adventure is a 19.67-foot center console built on a fiberglass hull with an 8.33-foot beam. Powered by a Mercury 150XL Pro XS engine, it combines the stability and dry ride of TideWater's hull design with the agility needed for trailering to local launches. The boat holds 56 gallons of fuel and carries a certified capacity of 7 passengers.

The layout balances fishing and cruising equally. The deck features rod holders, a livewell, and unobstructed space for 360-degree fishability. Seating is positioned for both angling and family outings, with deep freeboard providing security when carrying multiple passengers.

This example arrives equipped with several upgrades: Sea Star hydraulic steering with tilt wheel, a Garmin GPSMAP 943xsv with GT56UHD-TM transducer, a fiberglass T-top with glass enclosure and mooring cover, Fusion RA-670 audio system with four JL speakers, trolling motor plug and wiring, and an extra pair of stainless steel rod holders at the bow. The console faceplate, hull sides, and hard top are finished in black.
