The 2026 Avid 18 Vertex is an aluminum bay boat built for fishing, powered by a Yamaha 115 Vmax Sho outboard. The hull features a black finish with a sage green stripe. The boat is equipped with a Minn Kota Fortrex trolling motor rated at 80 pounds of thrust, a Humminbird Helix 7 chartplotter, and a JBL stereo system with speakers. Additional features include a wireless phone charger, BayStar Plus hydraulic steering, and a full reflex flooring kit.
The layout centers on fishing functionality. A rear livewell keeps bait and catch fresh, while built-in rod holders line the gunwales. The console is solid fiberglass, providing durability and weather resistance. Seating includes a fishing seat and a bicycle seat, with ample storage throughout the boat for gear and tackle.
The boat comes with an upgraded aluminum trailer for transport and storage.
