It\u2019s a cruiser with a well-appointed cabin, as well as a fishing boat that can be tricked-out to target any gamefish. And for both, it delivers the performance that most boaters can only envy.<\/p>\n<p><iframe id=\"wxuzj5efbz\" src=\"https:\/\/boatingmag.dragonforms.com\/wxuzj5efbz\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"width:100%;height:165px;border:none;overflow:hidden;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Powered by triple Mercury Verado 600 hp V-12 outboards, the single-step hull responds quickly to throttle and wheel inputs. Lifting strakes get the hull up and out, with a comfortable cruising speed of 35.7 mph at 4,000 rpm, burning 76 gph. Wide open, the 50 Evolution produces 54 mph (average from reciprocal runs), offering a comfortable and stable ride. My fortune on this trial day was a run from Palm Beach, Florida, to Dania, Florida, on the open Atlantic. I noted a solid feel as we sped over a 2-foot chop and occasional larger rollers. Equipped with twin control levers, plus a joystick, the 50 Evolution also proved \u00adagile in the marina as we wiggled through a maze of floating docks.<\/p>\n<section class=\"hydra-container\">\n<div class=\"hydra-canvas\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-6-1024x768.jpg?resize=800%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" class=\"hydra-image\" alt=\"Intrepid Powerboats 50 Evolution helm\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-6-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-6-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-6-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-6-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-6.jpg 2000w\">                <\/div><figcaption class=\"caption margin_top_xs full border_1 hydra-figcaption\">\n                <span class=\"hydra-image-caption\">Twin 22-inch Garmin 9222 multifunction displays are found at the helm.<\/span><br \/>\n                <span class=\"article_image_credit italic margin_right_xs\">Courtesy Intrepid Powerboats<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/section>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Interior and Accessories<\/h2>\n<p>With its tiered design, the helm housed twin 22-inch Garmin 9222 multifunction displays in a way that provided easy visibility and access.

Fold-down footrests are a benefit that all will appreciate.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, the Merc 600s remain stationary (only the lower units turn), providing a cleaner installation with a large transom platform and extended wings to facilitate boarding, either dockside or from the water.

Seating includes a flush-mounted pullout transom bench seat, with diamond stitched padding and backrest. Three steps up, there\u2019s aft-facing mezzanine seating for watching kids or lines in the water. (I applauded the angled, built-in \u00adfootrest.) Along the port side, find a well-\u00adpadded L-shaped bench with storage inside, keeping crew and captain within speaking distance. All of this seating is under the integrated hardtop that is enclosed on three sides, including forward-sliding side power windows. The supersize, raked single-pane forward windshield provides a fabulous panoramic view.<\/p>\n<section class=\"hydra-container\">\n<div class=\"hydra-canvas\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-3-1024x768.jpg?resize=800%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" class=\"hydra-image\" alt=\"Intrepid Powerboats 50 Evolution grill\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-3-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-3.jpg 2000w\">                <\/div><figcaption class=\"caption margin_top_xs full border_1 hydra-figcaption\">\n                <span class=\"hydra-image-caption\">The built-in grill makes entertaining a breeze.<\/span><br \/>\n                <span class=\"article_image_credit italic margin_right_xs\">Courtesy Intrepid Powerboats<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/section>\n<p>Cockpit features include a large drawer to port that reveals a built-in grill and sink. Below is another drawer with a built-in cooler. Anglers may opt for the port\/starboard aft corner livewells (with windows\/light). Fish boxes, tackle closet, GEM outriggers, and spreader and underwater lights will all help your game. A Seakeeper 6 gyrostabilizer helps to reduce the roll when drifting. Below the cockpit sole is the machine room, with access to systems, plumbing, wiring and other services. An 11 kW Kohler diesel generator is here, with its own 50-gallon fuel tank.<\/p>\n<p>Store the sticks in the rod holders on port and starboard gunwales, on the hardtop, and in six across the transom. As part of a \u00adsemicustom approach, rod holders can be added to the \u00adowner\u2019s preferences. To wit, the 50 that I tested boasted a dozen rod holders installed flush in the cabin sole.<\/p>\n<section class=\"hydra-container\">\n<div class=\"hydra-canvas\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-7-1024x768.jpg?resize=800%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" class=\"hydra-image\" alt=\"Intrepid Powerboats 50 Evolution forward berth\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-7-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-7-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-7-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-7-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-7.jpg 2000w\">                <\/div><figcaption class=\"caption margin_top_xs full border_1 hydra-figcaption\">\n                <span class=\"hydra-image-caption\">A forward raised V-settee surrounds an electric high\/low wood table that converts from a dining area to a wide berth.<\/span><br \/>\n                <span class=\"article_image_credit italic margin_right_xs\">Courtesy Intrepid Powerboats<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/section>\n<p>Heading belowdecks, through the centerline companionway, I found a sumptuous, spacious cabin fitted for weekending with the family or fishing a multiday excursion. The interior is beautifully constructed with a satin finish on the wood doors, cabinets and flooring. Sporting more than 8 feet of headroom, you won\u2019t mind hanging out inside. A forward raised V-settee surrounds an electric high\/low wood table that converts from a dining area to a wide berth. A dedicated locker for the filler cushion is out of the way in the peak. Note that the teak flooring is \u00bd-inch thick; the inevitable nick or scratch won\u2019t show through like it will aboard boats with thin laminate flooring. To starboard is a galley with a single-burner cooktop, microwave, sink, and side-by-side fridge\/freezer. A 42-inch TV is bulkhead-mounted. To port is the head with an enclosed shower stall, electric toilet, custom counters, and plenty of elbow room. The master stateroom lies amidships, with a hullside window and storage. To starboard is a\u00a0VIP queen-berth stateroom.<\/p>\n<section class=\"hydra-container\">\n<div class=\"hydra-canvas\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-8-1024x768.jpg?resize=800%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" class=\"hydra-image\" alt=\"Intrepid Powerboats 50 Evolution cabin\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-8-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-8-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-8-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-8-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-8.jpg 2000w\">                <\/div><figcaption class=\"caption margin_top_xs full border_1 hydra-figcaption\">\n                <span class=\"hydra-image-caption\">A 42-inch TV is bulkhead-mounted.<\/span><br \/>\n                <span class=\"article_image_credit italic margin_right_xs\">Courtesy Intrepid Powerboats<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/section>\n<section class=\"hydra-container\">\n<div class=\"hydra-canvas\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-9-1024x768.jpg?resize=800%2C600&#038;ssl=1\" class=\"hydra-image\" alt=\"Intrepid Powerboats 50 Evolution head\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-9-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-9-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-9-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-9-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/boatingmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BTG825-Intrepid-50-9.jpg 2000w\">                <\/div><figcaption class=\"caption margin_top_xs full border_1 hydra-figcaption\">\n                <span class=\"hydra-image-caption\">The head is equipped with an enclosed shower stall, electric toilet and custom counters.<\/span><br \/>\n                <span class=\"article_image_credit italic margin_right_xs\">Courtesy Intrepid Powerboats<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/section>\n<p>Full walk-around side decks (10 inches wide) make traversing to the bow easy. High rails (20 to 24 inches) make it safe, and the recessed windlass and anchor-line storage keeps the deck clear. You can order a sun pad on the foredeck with chaise longue seating if desired. As part of the company\u2019s evolution, the 50 replaces the popular 477 model. With the beam at 13 feet, 8\u00a0inches, it is a longer hull, carries more fuel, and has new hullside windows and a larger terrace.

But you could look at Tiara\u2019s 48 LE (see our performance test review at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boatingmag.com\/tiara48letest\">boatingmag.com\/tiara48letest<\/a>), which offers express cabin luxury, triple Mercury 600 V-12 outboard performance, and can be optioned to fish. It runs on a conventional V-hull, as \u00adopposed to the Intrepid\u2019s step-hull, and starts at $2,038,500. Intrepid informs us that the MSRP of the 50 Evolution is $2,450,000 and that most boats sell for around $2,300,000, depending on how you personalize the boat. Overall, Intrepid\u2019s 50 Evolution ranks as one of the best sportyachts in this range.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read Next:<\/strong> <a
