2026 Ranger RT188C

The Ranger RT188C is an 18-foot aluminum runabout built for crappie fishing and general freshwater angling. Its layout centers on three front seats across the gunnel, with an aerated livewell positioned in the front deck alongside an 8-foot, 6-inch rod locker that accommodates multiple rigged rods. Additional storage is distributed throughout the boat, including underseat compartments designed to hold tackle and gear for spider rigging, dock shooting, and trolling.

The boat features wood-free, all-welded aluminum construction paired with a fiberglass console that provides structural strength and a cantilevered design for improved legroom. A single 115-horsepower Mercury Marine gasoline engine powers the boat. Optional factory packages are available that add twin 9-inch fishfinders and an upgraded trolling motor.
