Scout
231 XS
2016–19
The 231 XS is our second XS model and compliments the already popular 251 XS. This model was created to be the best inshore / bay boat model in its class, and it’s just that, a hardcore fishing machine with performance that’s unmatched. Smartly designed and packed with our innovation, this model has all the characteristics of a serious bay boat, as well as a proud bow and sexy, aggressive lines. Underneath is a high performance stepped hull, and with a 300hp engine it achieves speeds in the mid 60’s. (Manufacturer Provided Description)
“Sleek and fast, this stepped-hull model handles inshore and nearshore duties with ease. With four people on board, we hit 63.2 mph by GPS with a Yamaha F300 four-stroke during our test.”
