2026 Ranger RT198P

The 2026 Ranger RT198P is a 19-foot aluminum bass boat engineered for serious fishing performance. Built on a pad-bottom hull with integrated engine setback, the boat delivers responsive handling and stability across varied water conditions. The all-welded, wood-free construction uses closed-cell foam flotation throughout, creating a rigid, quiet hull. It's powered by a Mercury 150 Pro XS outboard with hydraulic Baystar steering, power trim, and a stainless steel propeller.

The boat centers on a spacious front casting deck designed to accommodate multiple rods and anglers without clutter. Two rod storage boxes, an insulated cooler, and oversized tackle organizers provide practical storage across the layout. The divided, timed livewell with recirculation keeps bait fresh, while rear storage boxes accept tackle trays. Seating includes driver and passenger bucket seats with a center fold-down, plus two additional fishing seats on the rear deck. The custom fiberglass console houses a Lowrance Hook Reveal 7 combo display and full instrumentation, with flush-mounted controls for throttle and trim.

Electronics include a Minn Kota Max 70 trolling motor on a fiberglass bow panel with recessed pedal, two deep-cycle batteries with trays, and a Dual Pro six-amp three-bank charger. A 12V power outlet, automatic bilge pump, and removable navigation lights complete the electrical system. The boat features a remote drain plug, stainless steel boarding ladder, and marine-grade carpet throughout. A Ranger Trail tandem trailer with brakes, swing-away tongue, and spare wheel is included.
