Why some manufacturers build their entry-level models outside of the U.S. is beyond us. Instead, for newcomers to the lake life, we choose to build watercraft that embrace time-tested American values. The MX 185 is a perfect example. And by perfect, we mean a SSVĀ® hull design, plus an impressive list of standard features other folks try pushing as upgrades. For those about to boat, we salute you.
