PRICED TO SELL!

This 2020 Scout 255 Dorado is a beautifully maintained, exceptionally versatile dual-console that is equally at home fishing offshore, cruising with family and friends, entertaining at the sandbar or enjoying a day of watersports. Powered by a single Yamaha 300 horsepower outboard with only 186 hours, this Dorado offers an outstanding combination of performance, reliability and fuel economy without the added complexity and operating expense of twin engines. Owned by a boating professional and meticulously kept, this boat has been maintained with the attention to detail you would expect from someone who knows boats and understands the importance of preventative maintenance. It has no bottom paint, making it an especially attractive choice for a boat that has been properly cared for.

The 255 Dorado is a family-friendly sportfishing model designed around versatility and comfort. One of its standout features is Scout's innovative electronic aft-facing seat, which easily converts into a comfortable lounger at the touch of a button. When extended, the seat slides aft while the backrest moves into a leaning position, creating an exceptionally comfortable place to relax. It is complemented by the fold-down aft portside seat and fold-down transom bench, giving you plenty of seating options depending on how you are using the boat. Up front, deluxe fiberglass captain's chairs feature armrests and fold-down bolsters, with the portside seat providing room for two people, while spacious bow seating on both port and starboard gives passengers plenty of room to stretch out.

The boat is equipped with Garmin electronics at the helm, providing dependable navigation and fish finding capability, along with a Fusion stereo system for entertaining on the water. A marine head adds another level of convenience for family cruising and longer days aboard. The Bimini top provides welcome shade when needed, while the open dual-console layout allows the boat to transition effortlessly from fishing to cruising, swimming and watersports.

The single Yamaha 300 is an excellent match for the 255 Dorado, delivering strong acceleration and impressive top-end performance while keeping fuel consumption, routine maintenance and long-term ownership costs significantly lower than a comparable twin-engine setup. The 255 Dorado has a reported top speed in the mid-to-upper 40 MPH range with the Yamaha 300, while comfortable cruising speeds in the 25-30 MPH range allow you to cover serious distances without burning excessive fuel. Depending on load, sea conditions and propeller selection, fuel economy can be particularly attractive at cruising speeds, making this a boat you can actually use frequently without the fuel penalty associated with larger twin-engine boats.

The single-engine configuration also offers a meaningful advantage when it comes to maintenance. There is only one engine to service, one set of routine engine components and lubricants, and fewer systems to maintain compared with a twin-outboard package. That translates into lower annual service costs and less downtime while still providing plenty of horsepower for the boat's intended uses. With just 186 hours on the Yamaha 300 and a meticulous boating professional as its owner, this Dorado represents an excellent opportunity to own a premium, well-equipped Scout without taking on the operating costs of a larger twin-engine boat.

With its combination of Scout construction, excellent Yamaha power, low hours, no bottom paint, Garmin electronics, Fusion audio, marine head, Bimini top and extremely versatile seating arrangement, this 2020 Scout 255 Dorado is ready for everything from offshore fishing and family cruising to sandbar days and watersports. It is a clean, efficient and exceptionally practical boat for someone looking for one vessel that can genuinely do it all.
