2026 Ranger VS1682SC Angler

The Ranger VS1682 SC Angler is a 16-foot center console fishing boat built around a deep V hull designed to handle rough water and swells while maintaining a compact footprint. The fiberglass hull incorporates upgraded pultruded reinforcement inside for strength and a favorable strength-to-weight ratio that supports the superstructure.

This angler-focused design prioritizes working space and storage. The wide 8-foot beam delivers stability and room for fighting fish and rigging gear. A large, aerated and divided livewell sits aft next to a baitwell, while additional storage compartments forward and aft accommodate tackle and equipment. Pop-up cleats keep the gunnels snag-free during operations.

Standard equipment includes power trim at the console and bow, hydraulic steering, a fiberglass console, and flush-mounted throttle control. The 25-gallon fuel tank supports extended time on the water. The boat accepts a Mercury Marine 115 hp gasoline engine, delivering power suited to the hull's performance envelope. A range of factory options allows customization to match individual fishing needs.
