2026 Ranger VX1788 WT

The Ranger VX1788 WT is an 18-foot aluminum runabout built to balance fishing capability with everyday family use. Powered by a 175 hp Mercury Marine engine, it combines practical design with thoughtful storage throughout. The boat features a front deck extension for expanded working space, dual livewells, and integrated holders for tools, cups, and tackle. In-floor cooler and oversized storage compartments serve both fishing and cruising needs, while rear jump seats with concealed storage maximize seating flexibility.

Standard equipment includes Lowrance electronics and a Minn Kota trolling motor with dedicated storage, supporting serious angling. Hydraulic steering provides responsive control, and the foam-filled, all-welded aluminum hull offers durability and stability. Fiberglass consoles combine functionality with clean aesthetics, while non-skid flooring in the cockpit enhances safety underfoot.
