In an effort to diversify its offerings, Grady-White Boats has launched the Canyon 326, which merges fishing capabilities with comforts ideal for family outings and entertaining.
This center-console boat features a wider beam and includes three contoured captain’s chairs that have flip-up bolsters and footrests. The design incorporates standard built-in swim platforms on both port and starboard sides, plus a transom and a port-side door, which facilitate easy boarding from the dock or water and assist in securing larger catches.
“This new model fills a specific gap in our lineup. It’s ideal for customers desiring more space than the 306 but not quite ready to move up to the 336,” stated Joey Weller, vice president of sales for Grady-White, in a press release. “The boat’s multiple built-in features along with innovative design, style, and comfort, paired with many available options, make the 326 a fantastic addition to our extensive range.”
The electronics zone is secured with an integrated, scratch-resistant windshield. The console comprises an electronics area, compass, hydraulic tilt with a power-assist steering wheel, and a remote switch for the windlass. The fiberglass T-top, framed in painted aluminum, is equipped with a radio box, storage net, LED recessed lights, spreader lights, four rod holders, radar flat, and outrigger plates.
The Canyon 326 can be outfitted with twin Yamaha 300 or Yamaha 350 outboards. With a fuel capacity of 327 gallons, this model provides ample range to reach your preferred fishing destinations.
Fishing enthusiasts will appreciate the 32-gallon full column, illuminated raw water livewell. Grady-White also includes three insulated fish boxes—two 180-quart boxes on the port and starboard sides, and a 318-quart box at the transom. An optional 38-gallon livewell can be added for increased bait capacity.
This boat is packed with practical features such as fresh and raw water washdowns at both the front and rear, as well as unobstructed access to the anchor through a bow-walk-through and a standard anchor windlass. The deluxe leaning bar is equipped with a rigging station, fresh water sink and faucet, lockable storage drawers, tackle trays, and built-in removable trash receptacle. Additionally, there is an easily accessible engine flushing system for straightforward maintenance.
Grady-White claims that the Canyon 326 can be swiftly reconfigured for family and friend outings. Its seating accommodates a foldaway aft bench and cushioned port and starboard fish boxes in the bow with backrests that fold away. There’s also additional seating for two on the forward console.
“When we began designing this boat, we prioritized innovation, exceptional functionality, and luxurious comfort,” said Christian Carraway, Grady-White’s design engineer. “The all-new Canyon 326 incorporates a wealth of standout features common to every Grady-White, including our exclusive and unmatched SeaV² hull.”
“Even during challenging weather days, the boat provides an exceptional ride and maneuvers with smooth accuracy, ensuring that the captain and crew enjoy more enjoyable days on the water.”
Grady-White mentioned that the Canyon 326 will come with options like a bow thruster, battery charger, dockside power, grill, refrigerator, retractable shade, outrigger kit, and a casting platform with a cushion and table option.
