2023 East Cape VHP Blue and Grey powered by a Mercury 150 ProXS — delivery walkaround

This grey and blue VHP that left the shop recently sure is a head turner. Check out the full walk around! Thank you again for letting us build your dream skiff.

Build notes

This 19 VHP heads to Louisiana tournament country in a custom blue — matched to a Toyota TRD shade — over gray, with satin powder coating and diamond-plate patterned cushions. A Mercury 150 Pro XS on a Bob's jack plate and 23-pitch prop puts it in the high 50s to mid 60s depending on load. It carries a three-in-one transducer, tie-down straps for rough trailer roads, and a JL Audio stereo; the owner supplies his own casting platform for tournaments.

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

Every East Cape is built to order in Longwood, Florida — one at a time, around how its owner fishes. This is one of them.
