Scout 235 XSF Boats For Sale

The Scout 235 XSF is a 23-foot center console that combines fishing capability with family-friendly comfort, built on Scout's V3 hull with a pronounced Carolina flare at the bow that keeps spray down and lets the boat sit cleanly in the water. It came to market as a blend of two earlier models and has been a popular build, working equally well as a dedicated fishing platform and a day boat. The standard engine is a 250-horsepower outboard in either Yamaha or Mercury, with buyers able to step up to a 300-horsepower outboard; examples on the used market are commonly rigged with 250 or 300 Yamaha four-strokes or a Mercury Verado.

Performance figures center on a standard cruising speed of about 30 mph, where the V3 hull returns roughly 3.5 miles per gallon. Lenco load-leveling trim tabs with indicator gauges keep the boat trimmed side to side as passengers move around, which matters on a hull this size. A Mercury Verado setup adds an electronic shifter and a dock mode that slows the boat for close-quarters handling, and a stainless steel prop is fitted on the higher-horsepower rigs. One well-kept example showed 168 hours with a full B-service completed.

The helm uses a 50/50 split leaning post with side-by-side bolster seats and a tilt steering wheel, with an Edson wheel as an upgrade. A Garmin 9-inch touchscreen chartplotter is standard, integrating GPS, sonar, depth and Auto Guidance navigation, paired with a Fusion stereo and a JL Audio upgrade option; a Garmin radar dome can be mounted on the hardtop. Switches sit just below eye level for quick reach underway, and the dash carries Yamaha engine gauges, a 12-volt plug and multiple USB charging ports. A full glass windshield enclosure under the fiberglass hardtop seals the helm against cold and wet weather, and the T-top carries recessed spreader lights.

Fishing and deck features run throughout the boat. The full walkthrough transom does away with the splash well by extending the outboard shaft, opening the back deck for fishing and boarding. There is a transom bait tank with a circulating pump, an additional two-scoop bait well, gunnel-mounted rod holders, lockable tackle storage, an insulated fish box and an insulated bait well. The swim platform has a flip-up telescoping ladder that lays flush with the deck, and a power pole can be added for holding position near the beach. Six pop-up cleats, a Lumar windlass and welded stainless steel bow rails handle ground tackle and docking. The bilge is finished in smooth fiberglass with the fuel/water separator, raw water pumps and bilge pumps accessible.

Forward, a large coffin box holds about 60 gallons and drains overboard, doubling as storage or a fish box, topped by a Corian counter with cup and phone holders behind the seat backs. The bow lounge has removable backrests, a drop-in table, an anchor locker with tension hinges and accent rope lighting that runs bow to stern with adjustable settings. A fully enclosed console head with a porcelain self-contained toilet and fresh water flush is standard, with an overboard-discharge option.

Scout 235 XSF boats for sale appear in white as standard and in colors such as rascal blue, black and Scout gray, with custom finishes available. A cooler up to 64 quarts stows under the leaning post, and some boats are offered with a tandem-axle aluminum trailer for trailering to lakes, rivers or the coast.
