2026 Nitro Z18

The 2026 Nitro Z18 is an 18-foot fiberglass bay boat built for serious fishing. Powered by a single 150 hp Mercury Marine engine, it combines shallow-water capability with stable performance in varied conditions. The NVT hull design maintains smooth handling whether at speed or working a trolling motor in shallows.

The layout prioritizes angler functionality throughout. Ample dry storage compartments are lockable and positioned for convenience. Seating features bolstered Z-CORE cushions in marine-grade vinyl. A fully insulated step cooler and recirculating live wells with aeration and timer controls support extended fishing days.

Standard equipment includes Lowrance electronics and a Minn Kota trolling motor. The boat comes on a GALVASHIELD IMPACT trailer matched to the Z18's specifications.
