2026 Nitro Z17

The 2026 Nitro Z17 is a 17-foot bay boat built on a fiberglass hull with a 7.5-foot beam. It runs a single 115-horsepower Mercury FourStroke outboard, designed to deliver responsive acceleration and economical cruising with the trademark handling characteristics of the NVT hull design.

The Z17's layout prioritizes fishing functionality. The wide beam creates stable seating for multiple anglers, while storage is distributed throughout—lockable rod lockers accommodate rods up to 7 feet 6 inches, and dedicated tackle compartments in the rear keep gear organized and protected. The helm includes a Lowrance fishfinder as standard equipment, along with a full gauge package.

A custom-fitted trailer is included with the boat, engineered to match the hull's specifications for dependable transport and launching.
