2026 25 Open with a Yamaha 300

2026 25 Open with a Yamaha 300 — delivery walkaround

Adam takes a walk around this 2026 25 Open just before it headed to the Florida Panhandle.

Powered by a Yamaha 300 and loaded with Garmin MFDs, radar, a trolling motor, a PwrPux system, a motorized T-top, and twin Power-Pole shallow-water anchors, this build is set up for long runs, big water, and precision fishing when it matters.

Another East Cape craft dialed in and ready to put in work.

Build notes

Bound for the Florida Panhandle, this 25 Open pairs a Yamaha 300 with electric steering for a clean transom and Yamaha Autopilot at the helm. A Garmin trolling motor package, a lounger console with a big kill box, and a helm riser for a taller driver round out the layout, while twin Power-Poles, a wakeboard tow point, and hangers for four turtle boxes let it swing between hardcore fishing and sandbar duty.

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.
