The 2026 Vexus Defender 201 is a 20-foot aluminum bay boat built for shallow-water fishing. Its all-welded aluminum hull provides durability and lightweight construction, making it easy to trailer. The boat carries a Suzuki DF115BTXSS FourStroke outboard, a 115-horsepower engine designed for fuel efficiency and smooth performance across inshore, freshwater, and multi-species environments.
The open layout prioritizes fishing functionality. A wide front casting deck and spacious interior allow flexibility in rigging and tackle storage. The boat comes equipped with a Humminbird Helix 5 GPS at the console, a Minn Kota Riptide Maxxum 70-pound trolling motor with a 52-inch shaft, and a dual 31-series battery system. The design includes clean wiring for future electronics upgrades.
Built with all-welded construction, the Defender 201 is engineered for low-maintenance ownership and shallow-draft capability. The hull delivers a balanced, stable ride whether at rest or underway. A single-axle trailer is included with the boat.
