Its thoughtful features and efficient layout continue to make it a favorite among anglers of all levels.

A center livewell, topped with a cushioned seat for two, offers convenient fish storage, while the rear fold-down fishing seat conceals additional storage options. Powering this reliable vessel is a smooth Mercury® engine, engineered for efficient and economical performance.
Whether you’re seeking a versatile fishing platform or a boat that allows you to catch fish comfortably from your seat, the Panfish 17 continues to be a dependable choice for anglers looking to maximize their time on the water.
