Hello everybody.
This is my first post. I have been looking into buying a new bass boat or skiff boat.
I would like to spend no more than 20k with taxes and all. I would be financing the boat.
I have a few boat that I been looking at
1) mako skiff pro 17 cc and mako pro skiff 16 cc
2) tracker team pro 175 txw
The 175 comes with 2 live wells and a trolling motor and a fish finder as well as more fishing room.
But I heard that the mako fiberglass boat are better handling more sturdy but none of the other toys.
So far I have only been to bass pro shops and seen the boats first hand.
I have been doing some research and seen that a lot of people have problems with tracker boats and that the quality on mako has gone down in the last few years.
I have also gone online and looked at some ranger boats but I can't find a price and they look more price as I see that they're smallest boat comes with a 75 hp engine and most of them come with a 115 hp.
Any input would be highly appreciate it as I would want to do as much research as possible until I buy my first boat.
I live in Broward county the only close dealership I seen is bass pro shops and a ranger in pompano beach but they're inventory saids zero.
Thanks again.
