2026 Fighting Lady Yellow VHP with Yamaha 175

Kevin takes a walk around this 2026 VHP — a build with a very specific vision behind it.
Powered by a Yamaha 175, this one was put together for an angler who splits time between chasing trophy walleye in Tennessee and running water from the Gulf to the Keys. It's a setup shaped by how it will actually be used, not by a standard formula.
Finished in a full dipped Fighting Lady Yellow, this carbon and Kevlar build carries custom lean bars, Simtex cushions, custom SeaDek decking, a Power-Pole MOVE trolling motor, Lowrance up front for fishfinding, a Simrad MFD at the helm for navigation, a Bob's Machine jack plate, V-Marine accessories, and a Ramlin trailer underneath it all.
A true dream build, laid out for a traveling angler and ready to cover a lot of water.
Thank you for trusting us to bring this craft to life.
Every East Cape is built to order in Longwood, Florida — one at a time, around how its owner fishes. This is one of them.
