About This Yacht
The 2026 Vexus AVX 1880 is an 18-foot aluminum bay boat with fiberglass compartments and livewells, built on an all-welded high-performance pad hull. The construction combines aluminum framing with stretch-formed gunnels and an oversized gelcoat fiberglass finish. Key structural features include a center rod box, rear storage, and a wood-free design throughout. The boat is powered by a single Mercury 115 Pro XS engine and rides on a custom Vexus trailer.
The boat comes equipped with tournament-grade fiberglass livewells and a full suite of fishing electronics and controls. The standard package includes a Minnkota Ultrex trolling motor, Humminbird Helix 5 in-dash chartplotter, and a Minnkota bank charger already installed. Additional features encompass stainless pull-up tie cleats, oversized pedestal bases, compression lid locks with raised lips and oversized seals on all lid openings, and solid state wiring with lit tip switches. The Victor package and Vector Force transom treatment are included.
The transom uses Hard Case paint protection, and hardware throughout is sized for durability in fishing conditions. The boat layout prioritizes functional design with secure storage and organized compartments built to support day-long fishing trips.
