The all-new TRACKER Panfish 17 is a stick steer rig that's tailor-made for crappie, bream, and bluegill lovers, with features and a clever layout that appeals to anglers of every stripe. We started with premium marine-grade aluminum, robotically cut out the critical infrastructure for maximum accuracy and then use state-of-the-art equipment and passionate craftsmen to bring the rock-solid, all-welded hull to life.
The Panfish 17 has an interior that's bound to appeal to hard-working anglers who look after every cent. The bow driver's station features throttle and steering stick with a standard fishfinder and electronics to get you on the fish and keep you there. A huge bow storage box keeps a world of gear handy, safe, and dry.
The cockpit of this purpose-built layout gives you plenty of room for all the gear you and a buddy or two will need to rack up a limit of slabs. A center livewell is topped with a cushion that seats two, and the rear fold-down fishing seat conceals another storage box. Rounding out this package is a smooth, reliable Mercury® power that's designed for economical performance.
Whether you're looking for a rig that offers a world of versatility or catching fish without ever leaving the seat, the Panfish 17 is your go-to dream come true.
