We’ve had our boat for two months (2019 17’ skiff) and already have to send it back to Mako as the gel coat is spidering, and has *** in it. Sadly, that wasn’t the original issue. Previous to noticing the gel coat we noticed the foam under the outer layer of the boat...

2018 Mako 214 CC I ordered the optional livewell, the only way to fill or drain it is by getting down into a maintenance hatch and turning a t handle valve on the drain line which is blocked by the tight quarters. When it fills the overflow can't keep up so naturally...

2011 Mako 2201 Inshore Review
I have a 2011 Mako 2201. Kept on getting delamination. Took it to my fiberglass guy. He took the cap off the boat and found non of the stringers were fiberglassed to the hull. This boat was made poorly and will cost me a pretty penny to get right. I will never buy another Tracker Marine boat and will advise everyone I know to do the same.
I purchased a new 2010 Mako 18 LTS in April 2012. There have been 2 recalls – for the trailer and the center console, andevery year the rivets pull through the joint holding the deck and the hull together and need to be replaced. The first recall came when Tracker...

The decks are actually riveted and bolted on the pro skiffs and they constantly come loose

I do not understand this review. Mako boats are fiberglass, Tracker AKA Bass Pro Shops are aluminum. A 2015 Mako 18 Lts Inshore Boat has no rivets lol.
Mako Boats Review
Boat will not track strait at the least power it becomes uncontrollable it has done this since it was purchased no solution has been found.
The main gas line from the gas station pump to the fuel tank disintegrated which caused tiny black pieces to get to the engine and shut it down. I called Mako to find out how to fix the gas line and they told me I had to cut the floor out of the boat. They did not even...

Own a Mako 234. The macerator pumps have NEVER worked and have to be primed with a hose to pump. The fish boxes are so thin I am constantly having to patch holes in them after putting ice inside. I am confident off shore with this boat but these issue drive me crazy....
