2026 Mako 18 Pro Skiff

The 2026 Mako 18 Pro Skiff is a shallow-water flats boat engineered for sight-fishing and inshore work. Its fiberglass hull incorporates lightweight foam flotation designed to dampen noise, enabling quiet movement through skinny water. The hull design prioritizes ultra-shallow draft paired with a 7.83-foot beam, delivering stability for poling, casting, and tight-water navigation. The Rapid Planing System transom provides enhanced rear lift to improve acceleration in shallow conditions.

The skiff is rigged with six vertical rod holders positioned for easy access, and storage compartments built into the front deck keep tackle and gear organized. The layout accommodates a single 175-horsepower Mercury Marine engine and includes provisions for trim tabs. An optional poling platform is available for anglers who prefer propulsion by pole in the shallowest zones.

The boat comes with a custom-fit, fully galvanized trailer featuring a swing-away tongue for added storage flexibility and corrosion resistance during transport and storage.
