Question 1

How much does a used Scout 175 Sport Dorado cost?

Accepted Answer

Right now US Marine Connection shows 3 approved, priced 175 Sport Dorados asking between $31,000 and $41,900, with a median asking price of $34,999. Those are asking prices, not what anyone paid. The spread mostly tracks model year and rigging, since the listings range from a 2018 up to a 2024 and differ in electronics, canvas and options. All three have photos.

Question 2

What years of the 175 Sport Dorado are for sale?

Accepted Answer

The current listings span 2018 to 2024. Specifically, the descriptions cover a pre-owned 2018, a 2023 and a 2024. With only three boats listed at a time, the year mix changes as inventory turns, so check what is actually posted. All three are described as pre-owned and all three are listed as bowrider or deck boat style.

Question 3

How many hours is typical on a used 175 Sport Dorado?

Accepted Answer

Two of the three descriptions state hours, and they run from about 30 to 175, with a median of 30. The 2018 is described with a Yamaha F90 at only 30 hours, and the 2024 lists a Yamaha F90LB at 14.9 hours in its options line. The third listing does not state hours at all, so ask the seller directly rather than assuming.

Question 4

What should I check before buying a used 175 Sport Dorado?

Accepted Answer

Since these span 2018 to 2024, ask for engine service records and verify the stated hours on the Yamaha F90 with a diagnostic readout. Check the live well pump and plumbing, rod holders, the swim platform and ladder, and the bimini top for wear. Test the stereo and the Garmin display. Look over stringers, transom and upholstery, and confirm trailer condition if one is included, since the descriptions do not always mention it.

Question 5

What features come on the 175 Sport Dorado?

Accepted Answer

Based on what the listings actually describe: numerous seating options, a stereo, an aerated live well, rod holders, and a swim platform with ladder. Individual boats add a bimini top, a ski tow bar, a dual console with windscreen, Garmin electronics, a Fusion stereo, a dual battery switch and a midnight blue hull. Features vary boat to boat, so confirm against the specific listing you are looking at.

Question 6

Is the 175 Sport Dorado good for family days on the water?

Accepted Answer

The descriptions point that way. They mention tubing with the kids, evening cruises through the back country, numerous seating options, a stereo, and a swim platform with a ladder, and one boat adds a ski tow bar and bimini top. It is listed as a bowrider or deck boat. Fishing gear is there too, with an aerated live well and rod holders, so it does double duty.

Question 7

Where can I find a 175 Sport Dorado for sale near me?

Accepted Answer

All three currently listed on US Marine Connection are in Florida: one in Fort Myers, one in Naples and one in Sarasota. That is a tight southwest Florida cluster, so buyers elsewhere should plan on traveling to see one. Each of the three listings includes photos, and the asking prices run $31,000 to $41,900 with a $34,999 median.

Question 8

How does the 175 Sport Dorado compare to the Scout 195 Sportfish or 188 Sportfish?

Accepted Answer

By listings, the 175 Sport Dorado is the least expensive of the three: $31,000 to $41,900 asking, median $34,999, years 2018 to 2024. The 195 Sportfish shows 5 boats asking $36,390 to $59,717, median $49,850, years 2020 to 2026. The 188 Sportfish shows 4 boats, all 2026, asking $51,744 to $56,351, median $54,884. The site does not provide a feature-by-feature comparison between them.
