2026 Ranger RT198P

The RT198P is a 19-foot aluminum runabout built for serious fishing. Its standout feature is a generous front casting deck designed to accommodate multiple anglers with stability and room to work. The wider hull keeps more surface in the water when operating a trolling motor, reducing the effect of wind and wave action for more controlled, focused fishing.

Storage throughout the boat is comprehensive and purpose-built. Two rod boxes, an insulated in-deck cooler, and oversized center tackle storage all feature locking latches, weather-proof gaskets, and insulation. Rear storage boxes are sized to accept standard tackle trays, and a divided, timed, and aerated livewell occupies the center of the rear deck.

The hull employs a pad-bottom design for improved performance and handling, paired with an integrated engine setback that enhances power delivery. All-welded, wood-free construction with closed-cell flotation foam beneath the deck creates a solid, quiet feel throughout. The fiberglass consoles are handmade and accommodate class-leading 12-inch electronics. Powered by a single 150-horsepower Mercury Marine gasoline engine, the RT198P delivers the performance expected of its class.
