Crownline E26 XS

Suzuki 300Hp

 The current trends in the marine market are creating an exhilarating season for new boat models, contributing to an even more thrilling boat show season. A significant shift towards outboard engines is evident due to their ability to provide designers with more flexibility in optimizing a boat's interior. The growing popularity of wider bows is enhancing interior space and practicality, particularly when the boat is beached. Crownline's E26 XS aligns with both of these trends, offering buyers a chance to experience the best of both worlds.

 The spacious bow seating area is a standout feature, created by the wide nose of the boat. The forward-facing lounges are carefully designed for enhanced comfort, featuring fold-down armrests. Notably, there is generous storage beneath all front cushions, and the boat includes a fully-equipped anchor locker with a four-step telescoping ladder and a latching lid, all topped with soft-touch Sea Dek foam.

 At the stern, the standard convertible aft electric seat can be adjusted to your preference, maximizing the use of the expansive swim platform. Access to the platform is easy through the walk-through on the starboard side. Crownline has also thoughtfully added a convenient locker next to the aft bench on the port side, ideal for storing dock lines.

 The E26 XS boasts several noteworthy standard features, including the previously mentioned electric rear sun lounge. Additionally, the boat includes a standard head compartment with a granite countertop, a handheld transom shower spigot, docking lights, and bow walk-through doors that lock in place to shield against oncoming wind. This feature alone can extend your boating season by a few weeks.

 Standard snap-in carpeting, a feature typically offered as an option on many competing models, is included. Crownline goes above and beyond by providing canvas bow and cockpit covers as standard features, along with a color-matched bimini top. The importance of a bimini top is undeniable, making it puzzling why more boat builders don't include them as standard features.

 If your primary focus is day-boating with family and friends, the E26 XS is an excellent choice. Its combination of a spacious bow and the convenience of an outboard engine skillfully blurs the line between a runabout and a deck boat, a feat not easily achieved.
