You and Cameraman Ron (RIP) convinced me to go with Mako when I finally break down and get a boat. I'm just going to be hitting lakes but don't want a bass boat and definitely like the pro skiff prices better.

You can do your own 100 hour service without voiding the warranty, and the 20 hour one as well, the dealers trick you into thinking it will void the warranty if you dont, my dealer did my 20 hour service and fucked it up, not once but twice by not filling the lower unit with enough gear oil, the easiest thing to do and they blew it twice, unreal.

I did the 20 myself as well as lower unit. But according to Mercury as I called them they said it was mandatory to have a licensed through mercury do the maintenance. But I'm not worried about it. I'll probably just do it myself anyways

I'm surprised you have modified the front trailer bunks with some carpeted 2x4s stoppers
@H.A.B.Outdoors

You know I looked at that but the way the trailer is designed it actually won't work from I seen. It the needs to rest on top of the front rollers and not against because the trailer will actually flex/bend pretty bad.

The skiffs a step up without paying 80 k on a bass boat I buy used anyway I think the cc rides dryer and handles chop a lot better on bad days on the lake I don’t see bass boats out there

How do u compare the 17 with the LTS?
@H.A.B.Outdoors
Жыл бұрын
Honestly I love both. Obviously the skiff is cheaper so there's a big plus. The LTS takes choppy water better though (cuts right through) but has more electronics which turns to more issues down the road. But either way they're both MAKO and that's enough for me. But if I had the choice for either I would choose the skiff just cuz I like simplicity

Thats fair. Plus less weight. Sits higher for shallow water. I'm about to buy this boat. I do think it needs the stainless prop and the 9 gallon fuel tank for where I'm going with it

One last question. Would you get hydraulic steering or just say no because it's one more thing to break? BTW thanks alot for these videos of the boat. If mako doesn't throw you some money they definitely should
