The 2022 Maverick 18 HPX-V is a technical poling skiff built on a fiberglass hull, measuring 18 feet in length with a 6.67-foot beam. Powered by a single 115 hp Yamaha gasoline engine, it combines shallow draft with the range and speed typically found in larger engine packages, making it equally capable whether poling into wind or running open water.
The design prioritizes stability and responsiveness under the pole while maintaining the shallow approach needed for backcountry flats work. The boat accommodates various fishing techniques—from fly fishing and cast netting to live-bait chumming—across a range of conditions, from calm flats to afternoon chop.
Factory options available on this model include hydraulic tilt steering, a 38-inch tower, bow casting platform, offset console, 24-volt 80-pound 60-inch trolling motor, 8-foot power pole, and onboard charger. Grey and black faux teak décor is also offered.
