2025 Nitro Z17

The 2025 Nitro Z17 is a 17-foot fiberglass bay boat built for fishing with a single 115 hp Mercury FourStroke outboard. The NVT hull design delivers quick planing and acceleration with stable, predictable handling at speed. Its 7.5-foot beam provides room for multiple anglers and generates the stability needed across varying water conditions.

Storage dominates the layout. Lockable rod lockers along the sides accommodate rods up to 7 feet 6 inches, while the rear deck includes dedicated tackle boxes kept organized and dry. Broad deck space spreads across the hull, with under-deck storage throughout. The helm station comes equipped with a Lowrance fishfinder, a full set of gauges, and straightforward switching.

A custom-fitted trailer is included with the boat, designed specifically for this hull to simplify towing and storage. The Z17 balances fuel efficiency with responsive power delivery, making it manageable to own and trailer while remaining capable on the water.
