Those old Makos are my favorite style of boat.. Had to make a decision when I got my Wave.. Had a $50,000 budget, just didn't think I could have done what I wanted for the money.. This is one bad ass 25' boat looks great as well

This machine is outstanding

[@jerseyfreshfishing6613]

looks great...just need to paint the inside of the leaning post 6:12

[@southfloridaboatcenter7876]

Yup its painted!

[@jcbenson01]

Beautiful job. When you guys say $100,000, Does that include power? If so, that seems like a great bargain for a person with $100,000 budget in mind. It’s funny how much bigger that boat looks with that color.

For those of us looking to do upgrades on our Makos, what would you say are the must haves for the increase in performance and usability on the old transom cut makos but with limited budgets.
-Transom fill and bracket
-fuel tank replacement
-re-plumb the floor compartments
-compartment modifications
-?

[@dennissmith9706]

Why an engine bracket vs just bolt motors on original spot?

[@mr.brownplumbing]
