2026 Excel 1751 F4 Pro

The 2026 Excel 1751 F4 Pro is a 17-foot aluminum runabout designed for shallow-water fishing and hunting. Built from marine-grade 5086 aluminum with full welded construction, the boat features Excel's F4 hull — a flat-bottom design with progressive lifting strakes engineered to plane quickly, maintain minimal draft, and track smoothly across skinny water, mud, grass, and tidal flats. The hull geometry supports stable performance in tight channels and vegetated areas where traditional boats struggle.

The open layout prioritizes functionality with ample deck space for gear and passengers. Welded gun boxes, storage compartments, and accessory-ready gunwales keep equipment organized. The mid-deck operator position offers visibility and control, while integrated mounting points accommodate rod holders, electronics, and fishing accessories to suit individual setups.

The boat is powered by a single 54 hp MUD BUDDY engine. At 17 feet long and 5.75 feet wide, the 1751 F4 Pro balances maneuverability and deck room with trailering practicality for transport and launch.
