2020 Alumaweld Talon 18

The 2020 Alumaweld Talon 18 is a bay boat built from heavy-gauge aluminum with a single 75 hp Tohatsu outboard engine. The hull features a 14-degree vee bottom suited for outboard propulsion, with engineering details including a pronounced chine, bottom design, sidewall flare, and lifting strakes that work together to deliver a dry ride in variable conditions.

The boat measures 18 feet 3 inches in length with a 7-foot 5-inch beam. Construction uses a one-piece 0.160-inch bottom and 0.100-inch sidewall thickness, both welded throughout. The design emphasizes practical fishing functionality without sacrificing comfort or maneuverability.

Storage is a strong point on this model. The boat includes bow storage, storage-box seating, a glove box, dedicated rod storage, full-length storage trays along the sides, and transom storage, allowing anglers to organize tackle, gear, and personal items efficiently.
