Decided on the Boat
I think I have decided on the boat. I want to thank everyone for their input.
And the Winner is.
Ranger 188 w/ 115 HP Yamaha 4-Stroke.
So I'm going to ask one last time for input from everyone that has any experience with the Ranger.
Thanks again for the info

Don't know about the boat, but a buddy of mine has the 115 Yamaha and loves it, not sure if it is the 2 stroke or 4 stroke but I know he can go at least 110 miles on a tank of gas. Not sure on the size of tank but I think it was 19 gallons.

Please let me know how you like this boat. I am seriously looking at the Ranger Also. I think it's by for the best aluminum boat out there. The 188 might be a little too much boat for me. I like the Rt 178 but wish you could put a bigger motor on it. Good luck. Look forward to seeing your pictures.

I got to looking I wish they made the 617t in alum. That's a sleek setup. But I'm with you on the part on the motor on the 178. If your not gonna be happy with a smaller eng I would go for the 188. I bought a 17 targa with a 70 back in 98 and I'm still kicking my self for not getting the 18 with the 115.
