2025 Nitro Z17

Year 2025
Length 17'4 ft

The NITRO® Z17 offers smooth, economical performance in a nimble size that's easy to tow, stow, and own. Reliable power from a FourStroke Mercury® outboard stands by to ramp up the fun with the jab of the throttle, while the NITRO® NVT™ hull offers quick planing and acceleration with on-rails handling at speed. The wide beam offers room for multiple anglers, stability in all conditions, and a world of storage beneath the decks. Lockable rod lockers carry sticks up to 7'6", while dedicated tackle stows in the rear deck keep boxes organized, dry, and readily accessible. The helm features a standard Lowrance® fishfinder, a full gauge set, and reliable switching for maximum convenience. Underneath the Z17 is a custom-fitted trailer made just for the hull it's carrying that promises years of smooth and hassle-free trailering. The Z17 is the perfect value- and feature-packed package that won't break the bank, but help you put checks in it.
