2025 Xplor Delta 18 Guide Series

The Xplor Delta 18 Guide Series is a purpose-built shallow-water skiff for anglers who need access to the creeks, flats, and marshes of the Middle Peninsula and Northern Neck that most center consoles cannot reach. At 5 to 6 inches of draft, it poles and runs in water that eliminates other options. The hull is 100 percent vacuum-infused with vinylester resin over a fully cored layup, which produces a stiff, lightweight structure without added bulk. Integrated spray rails run the full length of the hull to keep occupants dry in open water conditions, and the 4-inch-higher gunwales represent a genuine safety and comfort improvement over comparable skiffs in this class. Standard features include a poling platform, rear livewell, large bow storage hatch, and a custom low-profile aluminum trailer. The build quality exceeds what the price point suggests, and the boat is ready to fish from the first day on the water.
