2023 East Cape EVO with 115 Mercury ProXS — delivery walkaround

Check out the walk around on this EVO that left the shop recently.

Build notes

This 18 EVO V runs a Mercury 115 Pro XS spinning a 21-pitch Enertia prop off a SeaStar jack plate, with blackout hardware in a satin finish. Gray-on-gray cushions match the hull around a flush-mount console with a jump seat, over gray SeaDek with black pinstriping. A guide-mounted trolling motor sits forward, with a second rear mount for running trolling-motor-first, old-school tarpon-guide style, alongside the transom Power-Pole. The hull is fast and dry without a jack plate — this one adds one anyway.

Taken from the walkaround — what Kevin points out on the boat.
