2017 Nitro Z18

The 2017 Nitro Z18 is an 18-foot fiberglass bay boat built on Nitro's Vortex Technology hull with a Rapid Planing System, designed for smooth, soft running and quick holeshot performance. Powered by a 150-horsepower Mercury outboard, the boat delivers responsive handling and precise control. The hull features a unitized foam-filled stringer system and deck for structural durability and flotation.

The interior prioritizes fishing functionality. The bow offers a 34-square-foot deck with 62-quart insulated cooler, trash receptacle, and optional sandwich tray built into a step. Dual lockable rod lockers on either side accommodate rods up to 8 feet, while a large lockable center storage locker provides additional gear storage. The console area has room for flush-mount 12-inch fishfinder installations.

Aft, a 30-gallon divided livewell with aeration and timer keeps bait fresh. NASCAR-inspired fishing seats provide comfort during long days on the water. An optional removable passenger console adds seating flexibility. The boat comes rigged with a Minn Kota trolling motor and Lowrance fishfinder, plus a custom-fit trailer equipped with GalvaShield Impact corrosion protection.
