2025 Ranger VS1682SC Angler

The Ranger VS1682SC Angler is a 16.67-foot sportfish boat built to handle rough water with the deep V hull design typically found on larger boats, compressed into a more manageable size. The hull uses upgraded pultruded fiberglass throughout, delivering strength and light weight. Powered by a single 90 hp Mercury Marine engine, the boat is rated up to 115 horsepower and carries a 25-gallon fuel tank.

The boat prioritizes working fishing space and gear management. The wide beam delivers stability and an open deck for rigging and fighting fish. Standard equipment includes power trim at the console and bow, hydraulic steering, a fiberglass console, and pop-up cleats designed to keep lines clear of the gunnels. Large aerated livewell compartments sit fore and aft with a divided rear well for live bait, and substantial storage is built in throughout the boat.

The design emphasizes comfort and control on the water. The deeper V hull is intended to keep the boat dry and running smooth in heavy seas. Flush-mounted throttle control and factory-installed features work together to deliver on-the-water performance. A range of optional equipment is available to customize the boat to specific needs.
