Introducing the Scout 530 LXF S-Class – Our Luxury Sportfishing Center Console 

This 53-foot center console is a part of our LXF Collection which is comprised of luxury sportfish models that showcase a unique blending of high-performance fish boats with high-end cruisers.  

The 530 is built on our epoxy-infused, double-stepped fuel-efficient hull w/ Carbon/E-glass process. The Epoxy-infusion process utilizing Carbon/E-glass is utilized on the 670, 530, 425, 400, and 377 LXF models (a process used frequently in the aerospace industry), and provides a Class A finish, with more stability in the hull while reducing the overall weight in the boat - countering the long-term ideology that a larger boat must be heavy to perform. The beam is extended to an even wider 17’ 6” when the electronically-actuated dual beach platforms are engaged port and starboard.  

Standard features on the model include a Seakeeper 6 gyro stabilizer; a unique glass helm enclosure with electronically-sliding windows port and starboard; a smartly-designed cockpit island with a forward-facing bench seat, aft facing bar stools that retract and stow out of the way, and a cooler, sink and cutting board with granite counter top; a Fischer Panda 15kW generator; 16,000 BTU air conditioner/heaters in both the cabin and helm area; an electric sliding sun roof; and heated helm seats and seat backs port and starboard, just to name a few.  

One of the things that clearly separates our models from our competition is fit-and-finish. Our 530 carries this principle forward again with completely finished doors, lids, hatches, bilges. We’ve chosen premium upgraded ultra-leather upholsteries, taken the time to finish the boat inside and out, packed it with incredible innovations and put it all on a state-of-the-art, high-performance hull with our carbon epoxy construction. 

Timeless styling, sleek aesthetics, and technology are three main pillars of the 530. We’ve built a reputation for being first-to-market with innovations throughout our thirty-year history, and the 530 carries the company philosophy forward with perks like our patented bow camera; our optional patented electronically-actuated articulating rocket launchers (that work in unison with the electronically-actuated SureShade integrated retractable aft awning); a Garmin 24” MFD touch screen at the helm, Garmin 12” MFD touch screen in the overhead helm, and Garmin 8617 MFD behind the port mezzanine seat; twin bow electronically-actuated tables; a transom access doors both port and starboard; and numerous seating options available throughout the boat. 

Below deck the 530 showcases a master stateroom up front with a walk-around queen berth and unique rod storage underneath when the gas shock-assisted frame is raised; an enclosed separate head with door and skylight; and enclosed separate shower room with door and skylight; galley with sink, drawer refrigerator, drawer freezer with internal ice maker, wine chiller and 32” LED TV (with a second 32” LED TV in the master stateroom); dining table and couch that convert to a single berth; aft double berth; hanging closet; and a central vacuum system. There’s even an overhead saloon skylight with automatic sliding shade, and Garmin MFD touch screen mounted in the salon. 

We want the customer to feel that ‘wow factor’ when they look at our models, when they touch something on the model, when they captain the model, and everything in between. The 530 is like no other boat in its class. 

Scout builds luxury sportfishing center console, luxury crossover, dual console and inshore/bay boat models ranging from 17’ to 67’ with 100% hand-laid fiberglass construction. Since our founding over three decades ago, our company’s goal has been to manufacture the best-built boats in their distinctive sportfishing niches, and we have built a world-class reputation for quality, strength, durability, and value.
