Mako Pro Skiff 19: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Overview

The Mako ProSkiff 19 is a versatile fishing boat designed primarily for inland and coastal anglers. Positioned in the middle of the ProSkiff range, this model measures 19 feet 4 inches in length with a 7-foot beam and features a shallow 9-inch draft, making it ideal for navigating skinny waters. The boat rides on an award-winning hull design that emphasizes stability, performance, and shallow water capability.

Hull Design and Performance

The ProSkiff 19’s shallow draft is largely attributed to its Advanced Inverted V (AIV) hull design. This hull begins at the bow with a pronounced spray rail and anti-spray pocket, while the outer edges sweep down to two outer keels that serve as the primary running and support surfaces. The center keel starts higher at the bow and slopes down to meet the outer keels at the stern, enhancing lateral stability and providing a smooth ride. Two clear water channels in the hull draw aerated and disturbed water away from the propeller, delivering cleaner water to the prop for quicker acceleration and improved fuel economy. During testing, the boat weighed approximately 2,251 pounds with two people aboard, 20.25 gallons of fuel, and test equipment. Powered by a 115 horsepower Mercury 115 EXLPT four-stroke outboard paired with a 14 5/8 by 21-inch Tempest Plus three-blade stainless steel propeller, the ProSkiff 19 achieved a top speed of 44.5 miles per hour at 6,000 RPM. Its best cruise speed was 20.5 miles per hour at 3,000 RPM, burning 2.6 gallons per hour, which translates to 7.9 miles per gallon and a range of 191 statute miles with a 10% fuel reserve. The boat accelerates rapidly, planing in 3.7 seconds, reaching 20 miles per hour in 5.7 seconds, and 30 miles per hour in 9.4 seconds, with a bow rise of about 15 degrees under hard acceleration. Maneuverability tests showed the outer keels provide a tight turning radius and maintain a flat attitude through turns, though aggressive handling can cause slight hopping.

Exterior Features and Deck Layout

The aft casting platform measures 3 feet 4 inches fore to aft and 6 feet 10 inches across, providing nearly 23 square feet of fishing space. The platform demonstrates structural rigidity, deflecting only 2 inches when walked across from corner to corner. Freeboard at the stern is 1 foot 3 inches, and safety features include a grab handle on the starboard side and a plastic step on the transom for easy reboarding. The aft deck contains four in-deck plastic hatches; the starboard hatch conceals the hydraulic pump for the optional jack plate, while the center hatch covers a 25-gallon livewell. The helm seat is mounted atop an insulated 85-quart cooler with a drain, secured by bungee latches and straps. Forward of the helm, the console includes integrated rod holders on each side, a padded backrest and seat with two cup holders, and a hinged bottom cushion that opens to reveal an insulated 18-quart cooler, which was upgraded to a bait well on the test boat. The forward casting deck is 6 feet 3 inches wide with a non-skid surface and a bow freeboard of 1 foot 11 inches. The bow locker features reinforced honeycomb construction with integrated racks for navigation and anchor lights, and ample storage space. Standard equipment includes four stainless steel cleats, and the test boat was outfitted with an optional bimini top. The fuel fill is conveniently located on the port side to facilitate refueling from land-based gas stations.

Helm and Controls

The helm is equipped with standard instrumentation including a tachometer, fuel gauge, and water pressure gauge, with space allocated for optional electronics. Above the windscreen, a sturdy rail provides a secure handhold. The accessory switch panel features a master power button that controls the entire 12-volt system and a ProTrim turn signal-style switch for operating the jack plate. The battery and fire extinguisher are housed securely within the console base, while the battery switch and main circuit breaker are conveniently accessible just outside the locker opening.

Additional Features and Summary

The ProSkiff 19 offers anglers a turnkey solution for coastal saltwater fishing, complete with a livewell, six rod holders, and a galvanized single-axle trailer. The optional jack plate enhances shallow water versatility by allowing the motor to be raised for navigating skinny water environments. The boat is available with six color wrap options for the hull sides, adding customization potential. Overall, the Mako ProSkiff 19 combines a thoughtfully engineered hull, practical fishing amenities, and efficient performance, making it a reasonably priced and capable choice for anglers targeting inland and coastal waters.
