Need a perfect match of performance and craftsmanship that satisfies your adventurous heart? The 2024 Tidewater Boat Center Console 280 CC Adventure might just be the boat you're looking for. Known for their meticulous design, Tidewater Boats stays true to these values with this year’s model.
The Tidewater center console is no ordinary fiberglass fish category boat. With a centerline of 28'4", a beam of 9'10", and weighing 5,800 lbs, it offers an impressive balance between space and weight. Powered by a Twin Mercury 250 XL Verado, it provides ample power for all your boating adventures.
The designers went ahead to create a stunning piece, enhancing the white exterior with a black insert on the cushions, taking modern design an extra mile. One notable feature is the hard top with full glass enclosures. The hard top is not only designed for durability but also meant to offer a sleek and stylish look to the boat. This center console boat also has pull-up cleats and gloved box on the leaning post, effectively addressing the fishermen need.
For entertainment, the boat comes equipped with an impressive JL audio system featuring a 10" sub speakers and an 8-channel DSP amp. This, combined with the soft grip console kit and transom kit, provides a perfect blend for thrilling moments when out fishing or cruising. The yacht-style helm station with room for two 19" GPS/chart plotters ensures a seamless navigation experience.
Furthermore, this watercraft's comfort is much considered. It holds a China Bowl Head with pump out and overboard discharge, a sink with a shower head inside console, cockpit bolsters, and fold-down rear seats. It is built with practicality in mind as it has two 30-gallon livewells, a sink leaning post, flush mount transom seat, and recessed rodracks with a toe rail.
The Tidewater Boat Center Console is built for adventure – with a 205-gallon fuel capacity, max HP of 600, and a 22-degree deadrise at the transom, this boat is ready to take on longer, more challenging trips.
With all these fantastic features, the boat comes at a considerable price. Tidewater Boats have it listed for an MSRP of $190,625, and invoices could run up to $152,500 at See Dealer Cost. So, if you are looking for a fiberglass fish boat that expertly combines luxury and functionality, this might just be it.
All in all, the 2024 Tidewater Boat Center Console 280 CC Adventure stands out as a superior choice for anyone with a passion for the water. Its unique design, coupled with top-notch standards, provides a boating experience like no other.

When our family wanted to purchase our first boat we tried to find information for research. However the only information available at that time was sales brochures. All of the product information originated from the manufactures. The only price we could find was the retail price listings or MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price). Magazines featured articles, and had really great photo layouts, it only offered product description and the (MSRP) retail price.
We went to the dealership where the sales guy held all the cards. The best thing he had going for him was our lack of information. We tried to wrangle on price without any real success. We bought the boat, but we paid too much. After that experience we felt there had to be a better way.
So we started this website because we did not want anyone else to feel disadvantaged like our family did that day. We discussed what we would like to see. We found experts in their fields and started asking questions. We then put together a team to research products and most importantly the dealer price. We started with boats and realized that there was a great need for information on many kinds of large purchase recreational vehicles and products.
Look when you visit a dealership for a boat, motorcycle or camper, if you have not done your research your negotiation for that item will start with the Manufactures Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The highest price you could pay. The sales person will try to see what you know and size you up. If you do not have product knowledge including what the cost was to the dealer – you are going to pay too much.
See Dealer Cost™ offers product information that is in-depth and understandable. You can build your ideal product on line and see what it cost before you walk into a dealership. See Dealer Cost™ gives you the product options and most importantly the cost without the pressure of someone trying to talk you into something.
Knowledge is power.
After you find the product you want on See Dealer Cost™ and configure the options. You can save it to view or reference later. You can also print out what you put together (with the price). In turn you can use this information to negotiate your best deal.
What if the item is used? We are making available all the information we have gathered over the years so you can research to see the original cost. Even on used items you can use our site to negotiate your best deal.
Our passion here at See Dealer Cost™ is to give people power and knowledge. We were at a disadvantage once and we did not like the feeling.
By the way this great idea we had to build a website with this information. We had to fight to be able to bring this information to you. See Dealer Cost™ was supposed to be a one hit wonder. The manufactures magazines that they send to dealers said we would be dead in no time. They pounded their fists on their desks and said the consumer did not want or need this information. They said we would put them out of business. We were sued multiple times by manufacturers for this information. We are still here.
Why would they not want you to be able to see and use this information? They were afraid that you the consumer would be the true winner.
As it turns out – this information has not put anyone out of business. A consumer who is knowledgeable is confident buyer.
So we continue on with our team of experienced and expert people. We constantly update product lines and most importantly the cost so you have information to make your best deal.
We are proud of the team and proud to be able to assist you in your recreational purchase. We do not sell any of the items listed – we just gather the information.
The products include thousands of boats, motors, campers, motorcycles and more. We are constantly working to expand the information we present for you.
We all have families. We hope your buying experience is a better one than our family’s first purchase. Use this website to be a knowledgeable more confident buyer.
We hope we are a valuable resource for you. Enjoy your purchase.
Thanks,
See Dealer Cost™ Team Members
