The 2026 Scout 261 XSS is a 26-foot center console built around offshore fishing and coastal cruising. Powered by a Mercury 400XL V10 engine, it combines serious performance with thoughtful design details. The black fiberglass hull features exposed carbon fiber hardtop legs and a Phender Pro fender system with four pins and receivers. Navigation and entertainment center on a Garmin 9219 display paired with a GT12M transducer, while a deluxe JL Audio system includes eight 7.7-inch speakers, a subwoofer, and dedicated amplifier.
The layout balances working and living space. A fiberglass leaning post serves as the command center, with an integrated bait prep station, sink, and tackle drawers. The cockpit includes raw and fresh water washdown systems. Below, a self-contained porcelain head with diaphragm overboard discharge waste pump provides essential facilities. Phone connectivity to the Garmin is integrated via HDMI. Comfort touches include a Bianca cushion package throughout the seating areas.
This Scout comes equipped and ready for use, featuring all systems in place for immediate operation.
