2026 Scout 260 LXF

The 2026 Scout 260 LXF is a 26-foot center console built on a fiberglass hull with a 20-degree deadrise and aggressive design. Power comes from a single Mercury 400 hp V10 Verado engine with power steering. The boat draws approximately 18 inches and weighs around 4,600 pounds without the engine, making it trailerable while maintaining the performance and sea-keeping qualities expected from Scout's construction.

The layout centers on fishing and cruising functionality. The helm features a fiberglass leaning post with bait prep station, sink, tackle drawers, and trash can, paired with helm seats that have folding bolsters and armrests. The bow includes rod and cup holders. A 45-quart YETI cooler is integrated into the design. The boat carries 132 gallons of fuel, 15 gallons of freshwater, and a 9-gallon holding tank, supported by an electric head and diaphragm overboard discharge waste pump.

Standard electronics include a Garmin GT12M transducer. The hardtop features exposed carbon fiber legs as standard. Available upgrades encompass full hull color options, Garmin display systems, black powder coat Midnight Edition hardware with carbon fiber hardtop frame, black edson steering wheel, JL Audio stereo packages, battery charger, and additional Garmin transducers. A bridge clearance of approximately 8 feet 9 inches accommodates most fixed structures when trailered.
