Build notes

Headed to a Northeast Florida couple who fish together often, this 18 EVO pairs a Yamaha 70 with a PowerTech three-blade prop. It runs a Minn Kota trolling motor on power pucks, a piano-hinge front hatch, V-Marine spools, solid-color SeaDek with a turf-green top on the poling platform, an old-school cut-down console with a Lowrance unit on a multi-directional mount, brushed-metal trim, and a telescopic dive ladder to port.

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