2024 Custom 1854

This 2024 Custom 1854 is an 18.5-foot aluminum runabout powered by a single Yamaha VF90LB SHO outboard with stainless steel propeller, capable of 42 mph. Built as a multipurpose platform, the boat is equally suited to fishing, duck hunting, and bowfishing. The hull features a 3/16-inch slick bottom with Gator Glide coating and 1/8-inch hull and interior construction throughout, finished in custom Mossy Oak Shadowgrass paint.

The deck layout prioritizes function and storage. A large front deck sits atop substantial under-deck storage, while the interior features woodgrain embossed Hydro Turf. Port-side shallow storage boxes pair with a full-depth gun box and trash receptacle on the starboard side. A removable poling and generator platform adapts the boat to different uses. Twelve 200-watt 5 Star LED bowfishing lights mount on removable rails, powered by a dedicated PowerMax 4500-watt generator.

Lighting throughout is comprehensive. Four flush-mounted LED cubes set into the hull sides, color-changing LED strips run under the gunwales, and a driving light bar mounts forward. A removable 12V Minn Kota Terrova trolling motor with SpotLock technology connects to its own 100 Ah lithium battery. An additional 100 Ah lithium battery powers the boat's lighting and stereo systems.
