2026 Mako 18 Pro Skiff

The 18 Pro Skiff is an 18.5-foot fiberglass flats boat designed for shallow-water fishing. Built with lightweight flotation foam throughout the hull, it minimizes noise for quiet operation in skinny water. The hull features an ultra-shallow draft paired with a wide 7.8-foot beam, delivering edge-to-edge stability whether poling, casting, or navigating tight inshore zones. A Rapid Planing System transom provides enhanced rear lift for quicker and smoother takeoffs in shallow conditions.

Storage and rigging reflect a fishing-focused layout. Six vertical rod holders keep tackle accessible, and an under-deck storage compartment organizes gear. Trim tab provisions are included, and an optional poling platform is available to enhance versatility. The single 175-horsepower Mercury Marine engine powers the skiff.

The boat comes equipped with a fully galvanized, custom-fit trailer. The swing-away tongue design adds storage flexibility and trailering convenience.
