Mako 18 LTS Boats
Inshore Fishing at its Best
Fishing is fun no matter if you are deep in the ocean or simply fishing along the shore, but when you choose to fish closer to shore, special attention to the design of the boat is essential to maximize its usability. There are a number of different companies that manufacture inshore vessels, but none seem to have a handle on their design quite like Mako. The Mako 18 LTS boats for sale today offer the angler the maximum in fishability on a smaller platform than many of the larger boats on the market today. The bonus of this vessel is that you do not have to break the bank to have a remarkable fishing boat.
Power and Performance
Power is always important even with a boat as compact as the Mako 18 LTS. The speed of this vessel comes from a single engine configuration, but as with all Mako boats, the ability to customize the type of motor you wish is always there. The options include a 115 ELPT Mercury Four stroke as well as a 60, 70, and a 90 Mercury ELPT four stroke. For those that want to get the most from their fishing journey can opt to maximize horsepower with the 115 ELPT Pro XS Mercury Four Stroke engine. When combined with the durable strength and integrity of Mako’s bonded hull design, the power and performance come together to produce the perfect blend of speed and dependability for this inshore boat.
Storage
The importance of storage might be apparent on much larger boats, but many people fail to see its importance on small bay boats such as the Mako 18 LTS. The designers at Mako always work to ensure that their storage capabilities are top notch for excellent fishing without tripping over gear. They offer ample bow storage as well as additional storage options at the stern of the boat. Unlike other bay boats, Mako has even integrated storage within the deck of the vessel to keep your gear and fish, stored away perfectly. The storage continues with the 15 gallon live bait well beneath the forward facing console seating area and another large cooler is located beneath the helm seat cushion. Vertical rod storage for up to six full size rods is located on either side of the center console and another two rod holders can be found at the casting deck in the stern of the vessel.
Smart Features
Designers at Mako do not just make boats that are convenient for fishing, but integrate specialized features into the boats to increase their appeal to those that truly love to fish. They do this through both innovative as well as simply comfortable aspects. One of the most obvious unique features of this boat is the raised casting deck. This is a huge bonus for the average fisherman as the vantage point gets the angler much higher above the water so they can get a better look at the fish. The casting deck also allows for much farther casts and is easy to access via the two sided ladder construction. The helm seating area is another smart design features. With most bay boats, this part of the boat is nothing more than a bench style seat. With Mako 18 LTS boats for sale you get more comfort than that with a backrest attached to the base of the seat. This backrest is designed to swivel up to allow for an aft facing seat, so you can be comfortable when piloting the boat and when you are just waiting for the fish to bite.
