2026 Mako 18 Pro Skiff

The 2026 Mako 18 Pro Skiff is a center console built for shallow-water fishing. Its hull design incorporates lightweight flotation foam for sound insulation, enabling quiet approach through skinny water. Power comes from a Mercury 150 ProXS FourStroke engine.

The 18.5-foot skiff accommodates anglers across its full beam with 360-degree fishability. The raised bow platform features yacht-style non-skid surface with closed storage beneath. An aft fishing platform mirrors the bow design and houses an insulated storage box alongside a 26-gallon baitwell equipped with Pro-Air aeration. The forward console includes a fiberglass seat with padded cushion and infused construction, paired with a contoured acrylic windscreen. Below the console sits additional storage space. Aft bench seating provides secondary accommodations.

Equipment includes a Minn Kota Riptide Terrova 24V trolling motor with 80-pound thrust and wireless remote, a Garmin 94SV chartplotter, hydraulic tilt steering with stainless wheel, and a 7-inch digital gauge. The console features binnacle controls with power trim, multifunction speedometer, fuel gauge, tachometer, and trim gauge. Six vertical rod holders flank the console alongside tool holder slots.

Deck surfaces include marine-grade vinyl upholstery with stain-resistant coating on seats and yacht-style non-skid on both platforms. Additional items fitted: boarding platform, bow cooler, deck and cockpit mat, anchor locker, powdercoated aluminum grab rails, and a 5-amp two-bank charger.
