Honda Marine has launched a new partnership with Scout Boats.
The partnership with Scout Boats will produce the Honda Seabrook Series – boats built exclusively for Honda by Scout featuring two 19.5ft models, the Seabrook Centre Console or Seabrook Dual Console, that can be customised with five different trim levels.
The boats will be powered by Honda Marine BF150 iST outboards and available in Base, Sport, and Fishing versions.
“A brand partnership with Honda Marine extends the value of our product offerings to discerning boaters,” said Dave Wallace, president, Scout Boats.
“We look forward to working with the Honda team who shares our passion and vision for advancing new innovations, cutting-edge technologies, and premium product solutions that define the future of the marine industry.”
The outboard features the Intelligent Shift and Throttle (iST) drive-by-wire system for control and power, throttle control, variable speed trolling, enhanced docking, slow speed control, and an easy-to-understand user interface.
Passengers
The Seabrook Series Boats can carry up to seven passengers and are equipped with a rear swim platform with ladder, ample cup holders, fishing rod holders and illuminated gunnel rod storage.
The craft are made using hand-laid fibreglass construction with corrosion-tolerant components, finished lids, hatches, and bilges.
Features include Honda HD-4 multi-function colour displays for engine data monitoring and fuel management, an illuminated 2.75in Ritchie compass, Garmin Fusion 25-watt RMS/50 peak stereo with four 6in speakers, Bluetooth connectivity, a 12V socket and USB port and a Lewmar stainless-steel tilt steering wheel.
Also included are SeaStar by Dometic Standard Trim Tabs, featuring an intuitive dial controller with an easy-user interface and intelligent actuator system.
“This new, strategic brand partnership with Scout Boats is designed to offer an innovative, feature-rich form of marine industry boat-and-engine packaging that integrates with a simplified, consumer-friendly shopping experience,” added Daniel Sherlock, director, Honda Marine Division.
