Which one suits which buyer
Take the Tracker 170 Pro if…
- You want the bigger boat: 17.0 ft against 16.0 ft.
- You want choice: we track 39 of these against 24, so you can afford to walk away from a bad one.
- You would rather not travel: listings in 19 states against 18.
Take the Tracker Guide if…
- Budget is the binding constraint: it asks $2,000 less at the median.
