2026 Nitro Z17

The Nitro Z17 is a 17-foot bay boat built on a fiberglass hull powered by a single Mercury 115-horsepower FourStroke outboard. The NVT hull design delivers quick planing and stable, predictable handling at speed. At 7.5 feet wide, the beam provides generous room for multiple anglers while supporting solid stability in varying conditions.

The boat carries substantial storage throughout. Lockable rod lockers accommodate rods up to 7 feet 6 inches, while dedicated tackle storage in the rear deck keeps gear organized and protected. The helm is outfitted with a standard Lowrance fishfinder, a full complement of gauges, and straightforward controls for ease of operation.

A custom-fitted trailer is included and engineered specifically for the Z17 hull to support reliable trailering. The boat's compact size and single-engine configuration make it manageable to tow and store while maintaining the features and capacity expected in a dedicated fishing platform.
