2023 ECB EVO with a Suzuki 60 — delivery walkaround

This gorgeous EVO with a white Suzuki 60 just left the shop. Thank you again for letting us build your... third East Cape dream boat!

Build notes

Its owner's third East Cape boat, this Fighting Lady Yellow 18 EVO V runs a Suzuki 60 for shallow draft over speed, drafting under eight inches on a 12-degree deadrise hull. A minimalist side console keeps weight down, and the removable poling platform swaps to an offset plate for freshwater lake trips. Rigging includes a Stiffy push pole and a Power-Pole Micro, set up for beach tarpon along the Texas and Louisiana coast plus inland lake fishing.

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.
