The 2025 Ranger Z518 is an 18-foot fiberglass bay boat built for fishing performance and stability. Powered by a 200-horsepower Mercury V8 FourStroke engine, it delivers strong acceleration and cruising capability. The 8-foot beam and oversize casting deck create a solid, stable platform designed to handle demanding conditions.
Storage is a priority throughout the layout. Twin 8-foot rod boxes run along the bow, complemented by a gelcoat-lined, insulated in-deck cooler and a spacious starboard gear box. The console is fitted with full instrumentation, provisions for electronics up to 12 inches, and matte black accents. A recessed trolling motor pedal and SRS Soft-Ride seating are standard.
The hull features a foam-filled core with strategically placed pultruded fiberglass reinforcement for rigidity and durability. New for 2025, push-to-close latches replace twist-style hardware. Integrated LED navigation lights complete the setup. A Ranger Trail trailer is included as standard equipment.
