2002 Mako 232 Center Console

This 2002 Mako 232 Center Console is a deep-V fishing boat built for both serious anglers and family outings. At 22 feet 9 inches long with an 8-foot 6-inch beam, the boat runs on a single 225 hp Yamaha four-stroke engine with 235 hours of use. The fiberglass hull is foam-filled and self-bailing, with an integrated transom swim platform rated for up to 300 horsepower.

The center console houses a Garmin 7612 sonar and GPS plotter with radar capability, a Garmin autopilot, Fusion stereo, and an ICOM IC-M424G VHF radio with GPS. Engine gauges and throttle controls are within easy reach. A side door in the console provides access to rigging space and room for an optional electric head. The fuel capacity is 150 gallons.

Fish-keeping features include in-deck insulated boxes, a deep above-deck livewell, rod lockers, and a large bow anchor locker. The forward casting platform has additional deep storage boxes. These practical touches combine with the boat's stable, dry ride and solid construction to make it a capable platform for fishing.
