The 2026 Alumaweld Talon 18 is an all-welded aluminum runabout built for fishing and recreational use. At just over 20 feet long with a 7.4-foot beam, it combines a 14-degree bottom vee with engineered chine and lifting strakes to deliver a dry, comfortable ride. The hull uses heavy gauge construction—0.160-inch bottom and 0.100-inch sidewall thickness—and can accommodate up to five people and 1,500 pounds of gear. Power options support outboard propeller or jet engines up to 115 or 80 horsepower respectively, with a 38-gallon fuel tank.
The boat is thoroughly equipped for fishing. It features a welded fish box in the bow, rod grippers, two fishing seats mounted on storage boxes, and full-length storage trays running the length of the boat. Additional storage includes a foredeck locker with locking door, a welded glove box, transom storage, and a stepped deck with integrated storage space. Bow and stern eyes plus four bolt-on cleats support rigging and securing gear.
Standard features include a three-bow custom top with side curtains and boot cover, a walk-through windshield with lower aluminum door, and a deluxe dash with five switches, dual USB ports, and 12-volt outlet. Interior details encompass Armor Tech floorboards with non-skid vinyl, sound insulation, Aluma-coat coating, mechanical steering, and an electric bilge pump. Navigation lights, U.S. Coast Guard-approved flotation, and under-floor protective coating round out the standard package.
