Tracker Marine Group, which manufactures Mako boats, has one federal safety recall on record: a 2016 gasoline engine campaign affecting 476 Mako 17 and Mako 19 models. This is a narrow recall history compared to many builders, but any used Mako from that generation warrants verification that the engine remedy was completed.
