2026 NauticStar 194 Bay

The 2026 NauticStar 194 Bay is an 18.67-foot fiberglass bay boat powered by twin Yamaha 115 hp outboards with stainless steel props. Built on a modified Vee hull, it delivers responsive acceleration and handles various water conditions. The boat measures 7.75 feet across the beam and comes with a McClain tandem aluminum trailer.

The layout centers on fishing capability. A 27-gallon aft livewell and 13-gallon livewell/baitwell under the console support live bait and catch storage. Six vertical rod holders line the helm station. Below-deck compartments and an insulated fish box provide secure storage for tackle and gear. The cockpit spans 93 inches and includes latched access panels.

Comfort features include two rear fold-down jump seats and an aft swim platform with an extending ladder. The upper stripe is finished in sea foam. A stainless steel three-blade prop comes standard on each engine.
