Deck layout

Purpose-built for the cast

BOW CASTING DECKCONSOLE · LIVEWELL · AFT DECK · HIDDEN JET

Deck plan

Open casting decks, practical storage and integrated controls.

Forward casting deck

A wide, uncluttered bow for standing casts. The standard package keeps the forward deck clean by reducing dependence on an external trolling motor.

Low console

Steering, display area, switch panel and emergency stop sit in a low console so sightlines and casting arcs stay open.

Livewell and storage

Integrated livewell with circulation, inlet and drain, plus front storage, aft storage and a dedicated battery service compartment.

Aft deck and hidden jet

Rear casting space with a protected jet intake under the hull. No exposed propeller at the transom.

Shallow and weed-rich waters

Where the boat is meant to work

Grass edges

Move slowly along vegetation without an exposed propeller. Hold station when a cast needs to stay on the edge.

Flats and skinny water

Aluminum monohull with a shallow-water fishing layout for lakes, reservoirs and protected near-shore waterways.

Structure and pilings

Heading hold and current-hold keep the boat presented to the feature while the angler works the water.

Clubs, guides and rental

Recommended for shallow-water lure fishing, guiding, clubs and rental operations — with sample boats and small pilot orders available.

FAQ

What waters is E498 intended for?

Lakes, reservoirs, inland waterways and protected near-shore areas. Recommended use is shallow-water lure fishing, guiding, clubs and rental operations.

Is there an exposed propeller?

No. Propulsion is an integrated electric jet with a protected intake. An external bow trolling motor is optional redundancy, not the standard layout.

What does station keeping include?

GNSS station keeping, heading hold and current-hold mode — intended to hold the boat near grass edges, flats, pilings and structure.

How is the battery specified?

The electric battery system is configurable by market package. Extended packs, fast charging and a cold-weather package are options.

What is the order path?

Sample boats and small pilot orders are available. Standard order lead time is 4 months; custom order 6 months. Warranty is 1 year standard.

Are dealerships exclusive?

Initial cooperation is non-exclusive. France, Germany and other active lake and reservoir markets are the first focus.
