The Enterprise 18
Versatile Performance, Head-Turning Looks
The Enterprise 18 aluminum skiff is an uncompromising vessel, inspired by the industry's top-performing designs—yet boldly forging its own identity.
Measuring 17’5” in length with a generous 77” beam, it boasts expansive forward and aft casting decks, wide walkable gunwales, and ample space for three adults to fish in comfort. Despite its size, it draws less than 10” of water when fully loaded for a day on the water.
A sharp 17˚keel deadrise transitions to 10˚ at the transom, delivering a smooth, confident ride through bay chop. Wide reverse chines enhance lift, add stability, and deflect spray downward for a drier ride. Seamlessly integrated float pods with built-in boarding steps reduce draft while improving holeshot performance.
With the recommended 70 hp outboard, the Enterprise delivers exceptional speed and economy, topping out around 40. With the maximum 90 hp, wide open throttle speeds of 50 mph and more are possible. Both center console and side console configurations are available to suit your fishing style.
Even when docked, the Enterprise 18 demands attention. Its elegant sheer line tapers aft toward the waterline, complemented by an aggressively raked stern and a distinctive aft deck layout—creating a look that stands apart from any other boat on the water. Its not just another skiff, it’s a statement.
