2026 21 EVO powered by a Mercury 250

Kevin walks the 21 EVO — then Lake X does the talking.

This one's headed to a Charleston guide and tournament angler, and it's loaded: a Mercury Pro XS 250 on a Sea Star 12-inch jackplate, a height-adjustable casting tower the owner designed himself, SeaDek helm and casting pads in Mocha over Black, satin-black powder coat, a 1100 GPH livewell, and a YETI 45 up front. Rigged for Lowrance electronics and riding on an aluminum Ramlin trailer with a stainless axle.

Kevin gets into what makes the 21 series what it is — the layout, the fishability, and why it handles the way it does when you point it into some water.

Then there's the run footage. This boat spent time at Lake X with Mercury dialing in the prop, and a good chunk of this video is it doing exactly what it was built to do.

Want to fish it? It runs charters out of Water Charters, and Team Hard Tuggin will have it on tournament trails all year.

Thank you for trusting East Cape with your boat.
