Add some full-throttle excitement to your lake days with the 2026 TAHOE® T18! This 9-passenger midsize runabout boat is built for performance, complete with a POWERGLIDE® hull with HYDROSTEP strakes. The pilot's console features a 7" touch screen that delivers information such as motor vitals, speed, and depth. Play your adventure's soundtrack through the 4-speaker Kicker® stereo as you pull tubes, skiers, and
wakeboarders with the optional TurboSwing® ski tow bar. Ample in-floor storage keeps your snacks, towels, and safety equipment secure and out of the way.
The aft swim platform with a 4-step telescoping boarding ladder makes it easy to jump in and out of the water. Find your favorite seat in the 3-across midship bench, dual forward lounges, or aft sun pad. The port bow backrest can be reversed for forward or aft seating and its cushion can even be flipped up so passengers don't step on the upholstery as they board.
