2026 Nitro Z18 Pro

The Nitro Z18 Pro is an 18-foot fiberglass bay boat built around a 150-hp Mercury outboard engine. Its VORTEX TECHNOLOGY hull design, paired with the RAPID PLANING SYSTEM, delivers a soft, dry ride with responsive handling and quick acceleration onto plane.

The boat arrives rigged with dual Garmin ECHOMAP units—one at the bow and one at the console—for sonar and GPS functionality. A Minn Kota Ultrex trolling motor provides low-speed boat control. The cockpit features hand-built Z CORE seating designed for extended comfort and durability.

At 18.67 feet long and 7.83 feet wide, the Z18 Pro balances maneuverability with stability. This model is purpose-built for shallow-water fishing, combining tournament-grade fishability with day-on-the-water practicality.
