2026 Nitro ZV20 300 XL Verado

The NITRO® ZV20 is a formidable Deep V fishing boat with the brute strength of a 300HP rating, the fishability you need to conquer the toughest tournament trails, and a hull made to crush swells with ease. It features the NITRO® Z-TOUCH touchscreen control unit that provides command of boat functions with the tap of a finger, and angler-friendly programs like the innovative First Fish function, which automatically fills and recirculates the livewell. A handy key fob controls many of the same functions.

Built with crucial input from walleye pros Keith Kavajecz and Gary Parsons, the ZV20 is designed to find and catch walleye, but it makes a great bass- or trout-fishing platform as well. Rounding out this big water dynamo is a factory-rigged a Mercury® outboard, 36-volt Minn Kota® trolling motor, Lowrance® fishfinder and new custom-fitted trailer designed for years of smooth, easy, on-road towing.
