2026 Nitro ZV20 Sport 300 XL Verado

Days on the water will never be the same with the all-new NITRO Zv20 Sport, a purpose-built rig specifically made to do it all better than anything else. NITRO's industry-leading design team took the success of the Sport series of Deep V models and added enhanced versatility through more fishing- and recreation-specific features that yielded a more seamless and capable craft.

New aft jump seats with storage underneath provide even more convenience and versatility! These seats not only offer comfortable seating for additional passengers but also double as extra storage space, ensuring that all your gear is neatly stowed and easily accessible. This thoughtful addition emphasizes NITRO's commitment to combining functionality with comfort, making the Zv20 Sport an unparalleled choice for both competitive fishing and family fun.

 A 300-horsepower rating delivers well enough power to carve through swells with a derby-winning bag. A new bow lets you flush mount electronics up to 9" and gimbal mount 12" graphs, while a twin-layer center rod storage keeps your sticks—and gear—safer and handy. Increased storage compartments complement a refreshed interior and all-new trailer touches that round out this tailor-made do-all rig that's designed to dominate the tournament trail and deliver class-leading refinement for leisurely days off.
