The 2026 Tidewater 256CC is an impressive combination of offshore capability, performance, comfort, and versatility. Powered by twin Mercury 200 Verado outboards, this 256CC has the power to confidently handle offshore runs while still providing the comfort and layout needed for family days on the water. The spacious center-console design offers plenty of room for fishing, cruising, entertaining, and relaxing. The large bow provides comfortable seating for enjoying the ride or anchoring up at the sandbar, while the open cockpit gives anglers plenty of room to work when it's time to fish. The twin Mercury 200 Verados deliver smooth, responsive power and excellent acceleration, making this boat equally capable of heading offshore, cruising the Intracoastal, exploring the islands, or enjoying a day at the sandbar.
