2026 Tidewater 232 LXF

The 2026 Tidewater 232 LXF is a 23-foot center console built for both family cruising and serious fishing. The boat features a 20-degree deep-V hull designed for smooth offshore performance, powered by a single gasoline engine capable of 300 HP. Its 95-gallon fuel capacity supports extended offshore runs, while the SeaKeeper Ride system provides automatic trim and stability control in choppy conditions.

The layout balances comfort and functionality across its open cockpit. The wraparound bow seating converts to a sun lounge, with an adjustable table and filler cushion for sandbar setups. An aft bench seat and transom walkthrough provide easy water access for swimming and boarding. A freshwater shower and swim ladder complete the beach-day amenities. Premium audio comes through a Fusion system with JL Audio speakers, including two extra speakers for enhanced sound.

For fishing, the boat delivers serious capability: a 30-gallon insulated livewell, raw water washdown, trolling motor pre-wire, and wide-open cockpit design for 360-degree access. Rod storage and general storage throughout support both inshore work and nearshore-offshore trips. The wide beam of 8 feet 10 inches maximizes interior space and stability.

Electronics include a GPSMAP 1243xsv and GT12M TH transducer with 20-degree CHIRP sonar. The hull is finished in Blue Mist with a sun shade bow, black powdercoat hardware, and underwater lighting via Sea Blaze Mini RGBW lights.
