2026 Excel 203 Bay Pro Elite

The 2026 Excel 203 Bay Pro Elite is an 18-foot aluminum center console built for shallow-water fishing and family cruising. The hull uses 0.160-inch-thick aluminum with a 14-degree pad design, lifting strakes, and reverse chine for stability in variable conditions. A single 150 hp Suzuki outboard powers the boat. The 94-inch beam and 68-inch bottom width provide a wide, stable platform. Fuel capacity is 30 gallons, and the boat carries a maximum load of 1,787 pounds.

The layout centers on a spacious front and rear deck with plenty of room to move and fish. The console features a tinted removable windshield, a 16-gallon livewell with cushion seat, and recessed tackle storage with three trays. Seating includes a leaning post with cushion and footrest, two Tempress fishing seats, and two rear folding jumpseats with storage underneath. A rear deck seatbase provides additional seating flexibility.

Deck features include two lockable rod boxes, six rod holders integrated into the console, 4 nylon mooring cleats, and an extruded gunwale with rubber rub rail and accessory slots. An integrated trolling motor bracket and 12/24/36 volt trolling motor harness are standard. The boat carries navigation lights, a speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge, and an 800 GPH bilge pump. The deck is finished with Superliner durable coating. An extensive range of optional upgrades is available, including hydraulic steering, additional livewells, jack plates, and fishing electronics.
