2026 Ice Blue Vantage powered by a Yamaha 115
Kevin takes a walk around this 2026 Vantage just before it headed south to its new home in South Florida.
Powered by a Yamaha 115 and equipped with a Minn Kota trolling motor, a Garmin system, SeaDek decking, a Fusion stereo, and more — this one's loaded and dialed for life on the water.
Another clean build out the door, and another dream craft in the wild.
This Ice Blue Vantage runs a Yamaha 115 with a four-blade prop for stern lift and no jack plate, keeping the setup old-school simple. A poling platform, a center-console jump-seat upgrade, and a Garmin MFD round out a boat built more for fishing than running, with a tie-down set for a future casting platform. East Cape calls the Vantage a flats boat with skiff appeal, quiet-running and drier in rough water than some 22-footers it's been compared against.
Taken from the walkaround — what Kevin points out on the boat.
The boat, up close.
Every East Cape is built to order in Longwood, Florida — one at a time, around how its owner fishes. This is one of them.
