18' Niente

Niente Guide Model - An affordable winner by any standards

The Niente is as rugged as they come and will take you anywhere in safety and comfort. Originally designed to meet the needs of a resort in the British Virgin Islands, the Niente is one of Panga Marine’s most popular boats. It's built from the same mold as our Islamorada 18, but without the interior liner and gunnel cap. This makes for a lighter, more affordable craft without sacrificing performance and you get the same smooth, dry ride.

Featuring a rolled gunnel interior with a forward casting deck, the boat is extremely light, weighing around 860 pounds. Perfect for a shallow draft, easy to pole boat. Made with top of the line materials, hardware, and workmanship, the Niente is tough enough for everyday use without being tough on your wallet. Here's what a Florida Division of Acquaculture representative recently wrote us: "The boat is a great multi-purpose boat. Also, the fuel efficiency is phenomenal and it is going to greatly reduce our monthly fuel expenses." Read the full email.


Pictures may be worth a thousand words but a test ride is better than both.
