2016 Scout 255 LXF

The 2016 Scout 255 LXF is a forward seating center console built on Scout's Nu-V3 high-performance hull design, which prioritizes fuel efficiency without sacrificing speed. Twin Mercury 350-hp gasoline engines power the boat to a top speed of 56 knots, with a comfortable cruising speed of 30 knots. The fiberglass hull measures 25 feet 6 inches in length with an 8-foot 11-inch beam.

The boat features Scout's patented T-top hardtop with tempered glass enclosure, providing weather protection and structural strength. The helm area includes hydraulic steering with tilt capability and a Fusion audio system with iPod and USB connectivity. A deluxe fiberglass leaning post at the center console has companion seats that fold into bolsters, a 128-quart cooler built into the console base, and four flush-mount rod holders for fishing gear.

Forward seating in the bow includes backrests on both the port and starboard sides, creating a comfortable social area or secondary fishing platform. The transom features eco-teak swim platforms, and hydraulic trim tabs allow for adjustments to running attitude. The layout balances fishing functionality with open deck space typical of center console design.
