2026 Excel Switchblade

The 2026 Excel Switchblade is an 18-foot aluminum jet boat built for shallow-water performance and maneuverability. Its tunnel hull design with a .125-inch bottom and 62-inch bottom width suits navigation in tight or shallow conditions. A single Yamaha 115/80 jet engine powers the boat, paired with a forward-mounted center console layout. The boat accommodates up to five people and features an Optifade Marsh camouflage hull and floor liner for a distinctive look.

Equipment includes an aluminum single-axle trailer with aluminum wheels, a matching spare, and composite-covered bunks with dual LED lights. A 12-gallon portable fuel tank mounts forward. Inside, a Bluetooth stereo with two speakers provides audio, while LED headlights match the hull finish. Six-gauge trolling motor wiring is installed. Lighting consists of a green classic package with four 3/4-inch floor lights, five 3/4-inch compartment lights, and two under-gunnel strip lights.
