2025 Ranger RT188C

The 2025 Ranger RT188C is an 18-foot 10-inch aluminum runabout powered by a Mercury 115 Pro XS four-stroke engine. This model comes equipped with a Ranger Cup Package featuring dual Lowrance Elite FS 9 fishfinders—one at the console and one at the bow—plus a 24-volt Lowrance Ghost trolling motor. Additional equipment includes Baystar hydraulic steering, lithium trolling motor batteries, and a boat cover.

The layout is purpose-built for crappie fishing. The front deck features three-across seating and an aerated livewell integrated into the deck. An 8-foot 6-inch rod locker spans the length of the boat to accommodate multiple technique-specific rods, and underseat storage compartments provide space for tackle and gear throughout.

Construction throughout is solid and durable. The hull employs all-welded, wood-free aluminum construction, while the fiberglass console offers greater strength with a cantilevered design that maximizes legroom. The combination of thoughtful storage placement and accessible deck design makes this a practical platform for full days on the water.
