2026 Mako 18 Pro Skiff

The 2026 Mako 18 Pro Skiff is an 18.5-foot flats boat engineered for shallow-water fishing. Its fiberglass hull incorporates lightweight foam flotation designed to dampen sound, supporting quiet movement through skinny water. The shallow draft and wide 7.83-foot beam deliver stability across the entire boat, critical for poling, casting, or navigating confined inshore areas.

The hull features a Rapid Planing System transom that generates enhanced rear lift for faster and smoother acceleration in shallow conditions. Six vertical rod holders keep tackle accessible, and underdeck storage forward keeps gear organized. The boat accepts trim tab provisions and an optional poling platform for added capability.

Power comes from a single 175 hp Mercury Marine engine. The skiff is supplied with a custom-fitted, fully galvanized trailer featuring a swing-away tongue for convenient storage and corrosion resistance.
