What Is a Scout Boats 251 XSS?
The 251 XSS, with forward seating, was designed to be a “hybrid” model capable of handling and performing in both inshore and offshore waters. This model has a draft of approximately 13” for backwater fishing; while the proud bow, hull design, depth, and freeboard allow it to slice through offshore waves while keeping you dry.
Standard features include a large anchor locker, port, and starboard lockable rod storage boxes, high-performance leaning post with rod holders, transom ladder, and trim tabs. Optional features include rear deck jump seat cushions, port aerated bait well,l and a porta potti just to name a few.
Beyond the stunning lines, ample fishing features, and creature comforts Scout is known for, the 251 XSS also showcases Scout’s revolutionary T-top/glass enclosure, which was awarded a U.S. Design Patent.
