2026 Mako 18 Pro Skiff

The 2026 Mako 18 Pro Skiff is a fiberglass flats boat designed for both fresh and saltwater fishing. Powered by a single Mercury 175-horsepower 4-stroke engine, it combines shallow-water capability with fuel efficiency. The hull features advanced design with lightweight flotation foam for noise reduction, allowing quiet transit through skinny water. An ultra-shallow draft and wide 7.83-foot beam provide exceptional stability whether poling, casting, or navigating tight inshore areas.

The boat's Rapid Planing System transom delivers enhanced rear lift for quick, smooth takeoffs in shallow conditions. The 18.5-foot length offers rock-solid performance from bow to stern with edge-to-edge stability. Six vertical rod holders keep tackle organized and accessible, while additional storage beneath the front deck accommodates gear. Trim tab provisions and an optional poling platform are available to expand the boat's versatility.

The 18 Pro Skiff comes with a custom-fit, fully galvanized trailer featuring a swing-away tongue. The trailer construction resists corrosion and is built for the demands of regular launching and trailering.
