Description
2026 Vexus Defender 189 rigged with a Suzuki DF115BTLSS in matte black — a sharp, no-nonsense aluminum rig built to fish hard and clean easy. Finished in Crimson Metallic, this boat stands out at the ramp without being loud about it. Powered by the Suzuki 115, you get modern four-stroke efficiency, strong torque, and proven reliability in a lightweight package that pairs perfectly with the 189 hull. This one is upgraded the right way with polyurea flooring replacing carpet for durability and easy wash-down, a Minn Kota Edge 70 (45”) trolling motor, Minn Kota 6x2 on-board charger, dedicated twin battery holders for the trolling motor setup, and a Humminbird Helix 5 CHIRP GPS at the console for clean, straightforward electronics. Center fold-down seat adds flexibility and comfort, and a custom boat cover keeps everything protected.
Incentives include $1,500 Military/Veteran/First Responder, $1,500 Sponsored School, $1,500 Loyalty Rewards, and a $1,000 Finance Incentive. On top of that, it comes with 6 years of NO-CHARGE oil changes (6 services plus break-in) and 6 years engine and accessory warranty coverage. Turn-key, incentive-loaded, and set up for durability over fluff — ready to fish and built to last.
With a 8’ 4" rod box, pair of tournament-grade fiberglass livewells, wide-open interior, and all-welded, high performance pad hull, our Defender 189 has everything you’d expect in a serious rig – except the higher price. Plus, this affordable, 18’ 7” machine is packed with bonus features.
Built on our exclusive Dense Base™ superstructure, the design includes a beefy transom, engineered for the added convenience and versatility of shallow water anchors. The front deck includes 3-across seat bases, a wider interior for mounting spider rigs, and a forward livewell/baitwell.
The helm of the Defender 189 is equipped with smooth, BayStar™ hydraulic steering as well as speed, tach, fuel, and trim gauges. There’s also room for flush-mounting up to 12” electronics. High performance bucket seats center the layout, while the cockpit includes a world of leg room and an easy in/out cockpit design. Oversized, fiberglass storage boxes feature raised lips with rubber trim seals and compression latches for the ultimate wet-weather confidence. The 189 also comes with a Minn Kota Edge, upright, level flotation, our exclusive Hard Case™ paint with clear coat protectant, stainless steel pop-up cleats, a wide choice of outboards and electronics, and a custom-matched trailer with Victor Shield™ protective coating.
The Defender 189... From price to performance, here’s a serious design engineered to put you on fish and keep you there.
