Restored with a Coosa Board Deck! Closed Transom with Bracket! Rebuilt Powerhead!
If you love classic Makos or just want a super solid boat with a great ride, then this 1976 Mako 23 is for you. It is evident that the systems have been updated or replaced. The hull was redone with a Coosa deck that was raised an inch to adjust for the balance of ride with the custom aluminum bracket. The bracket gives the boat an overall length of over 25'.
The Yamaha F225TXRA engine was rebuilt in May 2022. The seller estimates the engine has less than 100 hours since the rebuild. The exhaust and mid-section were recently replaced after the corrosion typical of this model year was discovered and addressed.
An 80-gallon aluminum fuel tank was installed. The fuel tank was coated in Line-X to prevent corrosion. Two new batteries installed February 2024.
Coosa board decks were constructed with updated hatches and hatch hardware. A custom live well was constructed at the transom with a see-through lid. The original helm console was refurbished and reinstalled with new hardware. The engine is steered with a hydraulic steering system.
Electronics consist of a Fusion UHD 750 stereo head tied to 8 kicker speakers through a powerful amplifier.
The Simrad GO7 GPS-chartplotter-fishfinder also manages the stereo through an NMEA 2000 network. Three batteries keep the engine starting and the tunes playing, topped off by a three-bank Pro-Mariner battery charger.
The wiring and plumbing have been updated.
The heavy-duty T-top has a hard top for longevity and ease of mounting accessories. The speakers are housed inside the hardtop giving it a custom look.
Fishermen will appreciate the 14-rod holders spread between 4 gunwale holders, 4 leaning post holders, and 6 rocket launchers. There are heavy-duty swivel rod holders mounted on each side. The custom transom live well provides plenty of space to keep your bait frisky.
This classic Mako has all the features you would want in a hardcore fishing machine. The seller has maintained this boat and has service records.
The boat does not include a trailer.

1990 Mako 23 CC FANTASTIC OFFSHORE FISHING MACHINE !TOUGH AS THEY COME – GREAT CONDITION !2008 RE-POWER – 265 HOURS – NEW BOTTOM PAINT !SHE WILL TAKE YOU WHERE THE BIG FISH SWIM !WE ENCOURAGE FAIR OFFERS!Mako is a legendary name in great offshore fishing boats. This may be a 1990 boat but that is when Mako built boats that were tournament battlewagons. She is tough as nails and will last forever. She looks fantastic, and rides and runs like a brand new boat. She was re-powered in 2008 with a new Honda 225 hp 4-Stroke and controls and has only 265 hours of use since then. She has had professional service since new, and has a fresh water pump in her now. This is quite possibly one of the best handling offshore boats ever built, and handles like she is on rails. She has all of the normal fish and bait boxes, rod holders, and a bow casting platform with dry storage below. What she does not have is a trailer but Magnum Marine sells new Venture Trailers, and often has used trailers in stock.Her T-Top will keep you out of the sun and her electronics box is handy. She has a AM/FM Stereo and a VHF radio on board. This is a well cared for re-powered offshore boat that looks good and can get you out on the water for a fraction of what a new boat would cost. Her design is timeless, and works better than a new boat. She can take your family swimming, pull a tube, take your family fishing, take you to an Island for a picnic, or just for a cruise down the waterway. Whatever the task, she will do it well.
