One of the best known names in the center console business is Mako Marine , who has been building boats for 50 plus years. One of its most popular models is also one that's been in the lineup for a long time. Measuring 23 feet, four inches in length and with a full 8? 6? beam, Mako's 234 CC remains a best-seller by virtue of its size, being small enough to tow comfortably, yet large enough to handle big water. With its wide, flared bow, generous freeboard and a 21-degree deadrise hull with chines that carry all the way forward to the bow (where they form spray rails for a dry ride), the 234 CC is very much built for open water fishing.

The open layout of the 234 CC is its greatest attribute, allowing anglers to follow a hooked fish a full 360 degrees around the boat. But there's more to this rig than meets the eye, and you have to step aboard and open doors to really get a sense of just well designed this boat is. Its all in Mako's experience and attention to detail. The owner spared no expense when outfitting this boat . Along with her fuel sipping 250 hp Mercury ( only 50 hours ) she is equipped like a much larger vessel with a large screen Garmin unit providing plotter and sonar , out riggers and a trolling motor equipped with Set Point to keep you in position over your favorite fishing spots. A helm livewell and plenty of storage and fish boxes make this a true fishing boat .
