The 2026 Avid 23 Fusion is an aluminum bay boat purpose-built for inshore fishing across South Florida's flats, backcountry, and nearshore waters. Aluminum construction delivers a lighter, corrosion-resistant hull that handles rough conditions without the weight penalty of traditional materials, and requires minimal maintenance in saltwater environments. The boat is powered by a Yamaha 200 SHO VMAX, a high-output four-stroke engine known for strong hole-shot performance, top-end power, and fuel efficiency.
The open layout prioritizes fishing functionality with clean deck space designed for casting and maneuvering. A Minn Kota Riptide Terrova trolling motor with 80-pound thrust provides precise boat control on flats and around structure, while a Minn Kota Raptor shallow-water anchor secures position. Fishing equipment includes a Garmin 9-inch Echomap Plus chartplotter with GT56 transducer, a 50-quart cooler with tie-downs, Railblaza quick-release rod holders, and a PowerTech stainless steel propeller. A Charcoal Sunbrella bimini top offers sun protection during extended days on the water.
The boat features trim tabs with LED indication for improved handling, a BOB's 6-inch hydraulic jack plate for shallow-water access, and ReFlex flooring on the front and rear casting decks for comfort and durability. Additional details include an anti-fatigue helm mat, premium leaning post with backrest and flip-up bolsters, dual battery switch, three-bank Minn Kota charger, and stainless steel retractable tie-downs. The trailer includes second axle disc brakes and a spare tire.
