After years of rumors, Scout’s new 670 LXS officially becomes the world’s largest outboard-powered production boat. The U.S. builder has other large center console models, including the 530 LXF and 425 LXF, but this Scout, designed in house with some assistance by Harrison Eidsgaard, is a game-changer. The 670, with a three-stateroom interior and large cockpit, is powered by five 600 hp Mercury V6 outboards. Those 3,000 horses give it a top speed of 60 mph, with a friendly cruise of 40 mph, and range of 500 miles. One of its best features? It also works well as an offshore sportfishing boat.
