2026 Excel Bay Pro Elite 230

Built around Excel’s signature Excelleration™ Pad Hull, the 2026 Bay Pro Elite 230 pairs a razor-sharp bow entry with a tuned pad design to slice through rough-water chop while staying level in shallow back bays. Its heavy-duty .160-gauge all-welded aluminum construction delivers a rock-solid, bone-dry ride without flexing under load. Up on the transom, a factory-installed Atlas Hydraulic Jackplate gives you instant, on-the-fly vertical motor height control right from the helm, allowing you to pop up on plane in ultra-shallow water, skim across skinny flats, and optimize high-speed trim on open water.
