You almost can't beat these little boats for the 18k or so price and you really don't even have to do a lot of mods to them to be all seasons fishing ready, like for instance, adding recirculating live wells like you do similarly priced boats from other companies. We had 3 little Trackers I fished out of growing up and I have always had a soft spot for them and trusted them even in some pretty nasty chop. I am partial to Xpress boats now with the hyperlift hull and the all aluminum decking with Seadek preinstalled, but you will not find anything close in them or frankly find one that looks as nice compared to the price point these Trackers offer. You will pay at least 5-10k more for a somewhat similar rig. Enjoy your boat. 👍
We are super happy with it so far. You will definitely want to upgrade the fish finder and consider upgrading the trolling motor. We also switched out the regular batteries with Lithium because after 6 hours of use, the locator and starter battery died and I had to troll back to the dock lol
@@SECJimbo absolutely love it I have 11 hrs on the motor drop it off Monday for a break in service. I have had it in 6inches of water and I have had it on big lake with 30 mph winds and 2 to3 foot white caps . I have the jet so it’s a little slower and the jet skips at full speed when coming over rollers
@@SECJimbo I also must say I never fished it stock the day I bought it I had a 24v trolling motor installed and 3 graphs along with 2 more battery’s so it never hit the water stock but the hull and motor are great wish it was about 8 mph faster at least but in a few years I plan to buy a ranger rt198t
@@billysidahoadventures5671very cool. Glad you’re happy with your purchase. I’m looking at a 2024 pro 17 ! My first boat but not new to boating. Been around boats since I could be on one ! This is all I would ever need. So I decided to buy brand new. And not deal with preowned hasssle. Something me and the girlfriend can fish out of and still enjoy the water !!
@@SECJimbo Lmk how you like it if you do get one, Ive been looking for a good used one for a while now and its a struggle to find one that wasent beat up for a fair price
Love this boat hope to see more of the boat in future vids! Been wanting the same pro 170 for couple years now
