ALK-2 18 CRS 2024

2024 ALK2 18 CRS — Mercury 115 / 67 hours / Simrad GO9
A sports car without doors. That’s the line ALK2 uses, and this one actually lives up to it.
2024 ALK2 Powerboats 18 CRS

Powered by a Mercury 115 FourStroke with only 67 hours.

Helm: Simrad GO9 touchscreen.
This is the compact center console that feels bigger than it is. Wide 8'2' beam, 11' draft, and a hull that still has that “get up and go” ALK2 DNA — easy to trailer, easy to store, and plenty of boat when you put it in the water.

Why this one stands out
Most 18-footers feel cramped. This one doesn’t. The 8'2' beam gives you walkaround room, a usable bow, and a cockpit that doesn’t turn into a bumper-car ride with a few people aboard. Rated for 5, it actually works for fishing and sandbar days.
The Mercury 115 is the sweet-spot motor for this hull — enough punch to get on plane cleanly and run with confidence, without the extra weight and thirst of a bigger mill. At 67 hours, this engine is barely past break-in. That’s a 2024 boat that’s been used, not worn out.
Up front at the helm you get a Simrad GO9 — 9' sunlight-readable touchscreen for charts, waypoints, and fishfinding. That’s the unit people actually want on a boat this size: big enough to use, simple enough that you’re not fighting menus when the bite is on.

The numbers that matter

Length: 17'8'
Beam: 8'2'
Draft: 11' (flats, creeks, skinny water)
Freeboard: 24'
Fuel: 25 gallons
Capacity: 5 persons
Dry weight: ~1,170 lbs
Hull: fiberglass / composite center console
Engine: Mercury 115 FourStroke — 67 hours
Electronics: Simrad GO9

Typical 18 CRS layout includes dual rear livewells, flip-flop cooler seat, bow seating with cushion/wraps, built-in swim platform with boarding ladder, and self-leveling trim tabs. Light enough to tow with a midsize SUV. Shallow enough to sneak into places bigger boats can’t.

Who this is for
Inshore fishing. Weekend runs. Kids and coolers at the sandbar. First “real” center console that doesn’t feel like a compromise. You get the ALK2 look and the wide-beam stability without a 22-footer’s slip fees, fuel bill, or trailer hassle.
67 hours on a 2024 Mercury 115 and a Simrad GO9 already on the dash. That’s the listing. Not a project. Not a garage queen with mystery hours. A lightly used, well-spec’d 18 CRS ready to go.
