2026 Nitro Z17

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

The layout prioritizes fishing practicality. Lockable rod lockers accommodate rods up to 7 feet 6 inches, while dedicated tackle storage on the rear deck keeps boxes organized and within reach. Ample deck storage throughout the boat keeps gear dry and accessible. The helm station includes a standard Lowrance fishfinder, a full gauge cluster, and straightforward switching.

The boat comes with a custom-fitted trailer matched to the hull for reliable towing and storage. Fuel-efficient FourStroke power combines economical operation with the throttle response needed for active fishing days on the water.
