2026 Avid 16 Commander

The 2026 Avid 16 Commander is a compact shallow-water runabout built for backcountry and inshore fishing. At 16 feet long with a 70-inch beam, it draws approximately 6 inches with the engine trimmed up, making it accessible to skinny water, marsh flats, and tight backwater areas. The boat is powered by a Yamaha F60LC four-stroke outboard, delivering 60 hp with strong fuel efficiency. It carries 12 gallons of fuel and has a capacity for four persons.

The boat comes equipped with a 4-inch hydraulic jack plate for on-the-fly engine height adjustment in varying water depths, a Gamekeeper package with angler-focused tackle management upgrades, and a wireless phone charger. An aluminum trailer is included, providing lightweight durability and corrosion resistance for transport.

The layout prioritizes fishing functionality with efficient deck space and storage that keeps gear organized while preserving mobility. The low-profile design and quiet engine operation support stealth fishing in pressured waters. The boat is offered in a camo finish.
