2026 Excel Boats Bay Pro Elite 230
Wide, deep, tough and fast.Excel has bragging rights to this smooth-running and fast Bay Pro Elite 230. This boat is an elite bay boat platform with features and options professional multi-species fishermen have been asking for. We built this hull from 0.160 aluminum, unheard of for bay boats that normally have 0.125 hulls. To move this large boat, we built it on a 14-degree pad hull that lifts the boat, provides a dry ride, and allows the boat to reach higher-than-normal speeds.
