Shallow Sport 25 X3: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Overview

The Shallow Sport 25 X3 is a multi-hull fishing boat designed for stability and performance in shallow waters. Powered by a 300 horsepower Evernute E-Tech G2 outboard engine, this vessel is built to handle open water chop while providing a stable platform at rest. Its triple hull design smooths out rough conditions and offers a spacious interior capable of accommodating multiple anglers and their gear comfortably.

Exterior Design and Deck Layout

The boat features a nine-foot beam that extends forward, creating a large, recessed bow deck suitable for several fishermen to fish simultaneously. The deck incorporates molded fiberglass hatches with anti-skid surfaces and deep drain channels to keep water out and gear dry. Storage includes an anchor locker and three dry compartments beneath these hatches. The forward seat of the center console doubles as a high-tech cooler secured by a welded aluminum rack and topped with a padded cushion. The stern casting deck is equipped with a center-mounted 42-gallon livewell, flanked by dry storage compartments and systems access points. The hull extends beyond the transom to form a pocket, which aids in shallow water flotation and allows the boat to plane quickly with minimal bow rise.

Center Console and Helm Features

The center console is narrow with a steering wheel mounted near the centerline, featuring a multi-level dash with space for a flush-mounted multifunction display. It includes two flat areas with molded-in fiddles and an aluminum footrest bar at the base for secure footing at speed. The helm is equipped with a stainless steel destroyer steering wheel and a hydraulic jack plate control mounted to the left. An optional powder-coated aluminum T-top provides additional hull lift and houses an electronics box underneath. Rod holders are symmetrically placed on both sides of the console, and the helm seat is a leaning post with a backrest, folding armrests, and dual folding footrests. The back of the helm includes six rocket launcher-style rod holders and cup holders. The console and helm seat rest on an optional fiberglass riser, which elevates the vantage point for better visibility and a drier ride, with side hatches offering additional dry storage.

Power and Performance

The test boat was powered by an Evernute E-Tech G2 300 horsepower outboard with a 25-inch shaft and a 1.85:1 gear ratio, fitted with a 15-inch diameter by 18-inch pitch four-blade stainless steel propeller. With an estimated weight of 3,901 pounds including 74 gallons of fuel, the boat achieved a top speed of 46.5 miles per hour at 5,700 RPM. The optimal cruising speed was recorded at 26.6 miles per hour at 4,000 RPM, consuming 9.4 gallons per hour and yielding a fuel efficiency of 2.8 miles per gallon. This translates to a range of approximately 202 statute miles with a 10% fuel reserve. The boat’s efficiency benefits from the hydrodynamically designed SLX gear case, which reduces drag without compromising speed or acceleration. Acceleration tests showed the boat reaching 20 miles per hour in 4.3 seconds and 30 miles per hour in 7.5 seconds. The hull’s triple tunnel design maintained stability and prevented bottoming out in heavy bay chop, while turns were flat with minimal lean and no sliding. The boat planes off quickly from idle with very little bow rise, and remains remarkably stable at rest.

Additional Features and Shallow Water Capability

The Shallow Sport 25 X3 is engineered for shallow water environments such as bayous, swamps, and protected waters. The hydraulic jack plate allows for precise motor height adjustment without compromising water intake, thanks to dual water inlets on the SLX gear case. An aftermarket anti-cavitation plate bolted to the outboard’s lower unit enables the motor to run above the hull bottom, achieving a draft of just six inches while underway. The optional T-top is powder-coated aluminum and contributes to hull lift, enhancing overall efficiency. The boat’s large forward casting deck and stable platform make it well-suited for fishing with rods or nets in skinny water conditions.

Conclusion

The Shallow Sport 25 X3, powered by the Evernute E-Tech G2 300, demonstrates excellent performance, stability, and shallow water capability. Its thoughtful design accommodates anglers with ample deck space, storage, and livewells, while the advanced hull and propulsion features deliver efficient and smooth operation in challenging conditions. This boat is a serious fishing machine optimized for shallow and protected waters, providing both comfort and functionality for anglers.
