SICK LEAVE — A DISTINCTIVE SCOUT 530 WITH A SERIOUS 2023 REPOWER
2023 Repower | Five Mercury V10 400 Verados | 2,000 HP | Tower | Seakeeper | Custom Free-Fall Anchor System
Sick Leave is not simply another Scout 530. She is an exceptionally well-configured example combining a 2023 five-engine Mercury V10 repower, custom offshore equipment, Seakeeper stabilization, an elevated tower, and a highly versatile layout designed for serious offshore use and entertaining.
The result is a 530 that can transition effortlessly from offshore fishing and diving to Bahamas cruising, sandbar days, Intracoastal cruising, and large-group entertaining.
2023 MERCURY V10 REPPOWER — 2,000 HP
In 2023, Sick Leave was repowered with five Mercury 5.7L V10 400 hp Verados, providing a combined 2,000 horsepower.
The V10 platform delivers strong acceleration, smooth power delivery, and excellent low-RPM response while maintaining an efficient and balanced five-engine configuration.
The installation provides an impressive combination of power, performance, reliability, and usability, making the boat exceptionally responsive for a vessel of this size.
Mercury engine warranty coverage extends through 2028, providing additional confidence for the next owner.
THE TOWER — A SECOND LEVEL ON THE WATER
The tower is one of Sick Leave’s most distinctive features and should not be viewed solely as fishing equipment.
It effectively creates a second level aboard the boat, giving guests another area to enjoy while underway or at anchor. For fishing, the elevated position provides an exceptional vantage point offshore. For cruising and entertaining, it allows guests to spread naturally between the upper and lower levels.
That additional space makes a significant difference when entertaining a large group. Instead of everyone being concentrated in a single cockpit, guests can move throughout the boat and enjoy multiple areas.
Whether watching the action offshore, enjoying the ride, relaxing at the sandbar, or entertaining friends, the tower adds an entirely different dimension to the 530.
CUSTOM FREE-FALL DRUM ANCHOR SYSTEM
One of the most impressive and unique upgrades aboard Sick Leave is the custom drum/barrel-style anchoring system with approximately 1,000 feet of line.
This is a very different system from the conventional windlass found on most boats. It is designed for rapid free-fall deployment and powered retrieval from the helm, minimizing the hands-on operation normally associated with anchoring.
For an owner who regularly fishes offshore, dives, moves between fishing locations, or spends time at sandbars, the difference is substantial.
It is a purpose-built system that adds real operational convenience and is the type of upgrade that becomes increasingly appreciated with use.
BUILT FOR OFFSHORE ADVENTURES
Sick Leave is equipped for serious offshore use while maintaining the comfort and amenities expected for extended days on the water.
Notable equipment includes:
● Five Mercury 5.7L V10 400 Verados — 2,000 HP
● 2023 repower

ONE BOAT. MULTIPLE WAYS TO ENJOY IT.
What makes Sick Leave particularly compelling is not any single option—it is the combination of her major upgrades and the way they work together.
The 2023 Mercury V10 repower provides the power and modern propulsion package. The tower adds an entirely different level of functionality and usable space. The Seakeeper enhances comfort offshore. The custom anchoring system makes anchoring faster and easier. And the fishing, refrigeration, audio, and entertainment equipment allow the boat to serve equally well as an offshore fishing platform or a large, comfortable day cruiser.
She is equally at home running offshore at first light, spending the day diving and fishing, cruising to the Bahamas, relaxing at a sandbar, or entertaining a large group on the Intracoastal.
Sick Leave deserves a closer look. Her value is not simply in the model, year, or engine hours—it is in the 2023 repower, extensive custom equipment, and carefully selected configuration that make this particular 530 a very different boat from a standard example.
Sick Leave represents a rare combination of horsepower, offshore capability, comfort, entertainment space, and custom equipment—all in one exceptionally versatile Scout 530.
