Scout 420 LXF


Luxurious comfort in a versatile center console.


S


cout raises the bar on offshore luxury with its all-new
420 LXF, a beautifully-designed center console that’s
built for enjoying every minute of summer.
“With its unmatched performance and amazing first-class
appointments above and below deck, the 420 LXF is ideal
for anything the Great Lakes throw at you,” says Alan Lang,
Scout’s director of sales and marketing.
The fun begins up in the bow, where luxurious wraparound
seating features buttery-soft yet durable Brisa upholstery.
An electric lift raises the bow floor panel to become a
pedestal-mount table; raising it midway allows the addition
of a removable cushion between the bow seats, converting
this space into a huge sunpad. Twin forward-facing, heated
loungers in front of the console create a living room-like
environment for conversation and an ideal spot to stretch out.
The console includes a large storage compartment up
front with a starboard side locker for boat hooks, mops,
lines and other gear. On the console’s port side, a large
door opens to provide access to the air conditioned cabin
below deck, complete with a fully-equipped galley, enclosed

shower, spacious head compartment and two single beds
that convert into a queen-plus berth.
Back on deck, three heated captain’s chairs face the modern
glass helm, which features three standard 16-inch Garmin
multifunction screens or three optional 17-inch screens.
Joystick docking is standard with Yamaha or Mercury power,
while a bowthruster is available as an option. Additional
options include a 5-N-1 Performance Leaning Post with
second row seating and a Seakeeper gyrostabilizer.
Scout’s attention to detail includes a standard cockpit
refrigerator with an icemaker, a patent-pending bow eye
camera, a rear-facing cockpit seat and a fold-down seat
on the transom. A keychain fob allows for programming
electronics on the boat, meaning a boater can power on/
off pre-programmable features at the touch of a button.
As a semi-custom boat, Scout’s 420 LXF gives boaters the
option to add features like radar, satellite television, a cockpit
grill or an electrically-operated cockpit sun shade as desired.
“It’s a great dayboat that can also cruise, making it an
ideal option for boaters on the Great Lakes,” Lang says. ★
