What do you guys know about Mako's of these years, saw this on Ebay and thought it was a real good deal, I know Mako's are different now but the hull looks the same with the addition of the modern transom, but I have not really heard anything about them

That's a Tracker Mako, I believe. Not as good as earlier years.

Check this one out, Willy.

;DWilly, if your looking at boats like that, I need to work with your P.D., that boat would never be in my budget with what I make in Redneck, yuppyville Lewes, De.
;D

mako is a reputable company. thats all i know about them. perty boat. dont know about the price though.

Thats nice Tin, but it is 24 years old and I dont believe that is the original transom on it. If it isn't who did the work etc etc this puppy is six years old with twin brand new honda four strokes and a much nicer layout and equipment list. Besides being three feet longer. What is the story with the Tracker owned Makos, are they no good? The ones I saw at the AC boat show sure looked like nicely made boats. That boat with a single four stroke, I believe Yamaha not sure was 65 G's

oh ur a cop? thats cool, just put it in someone elses name and park it at thier house and internal afairs will never find out about it! if you need some help with that, i'll offer my services (and driveway)

I am probably dreaming but compared to the prices I have seen lately that great riding hull with two brand new Hondamatics seems like quite a buy

I'd take that '84 over the '99 if I HAD to choose.

Some insight. I wouldn't buy a Tracker Mako or Seacraft. The last year or so they may have improved though.

Have the hull surveyed and pull the trigger if it passes. Thats a heck of a deal cause you gonna tie up better than 27g's hanging them new honda's.

I wouldn't be comfortable w/2 HEAVY Honda's on a Tracker transom, but that's just me. There's a reason it's priced as it is. ;)
