I’m looking at a new Ranger RB200, 20’ aluminum, center console, 150hp Merc, 80lb (I think) minn kota. I like the size and definitely the price point.
Does anyone have any opinions or personal experience with one of these boats (or even the 190)? I’d like to know how it handles bigger water. All I can find online are Ranger promo’s and other people clearly sponsored by Ranger and all the rah-rah [censored]. Typically when I buy I new toy I look at the rating first, then read all the negative reviews second so I have a good picture.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Sorry, didn’t realize “carp” (rearrange the letters) would be censored.

Ranger does not make tin hulls, they put their decal on someone else's tin hull. There are far superior hulls built for what the cookie cutter mass produced boats cost. Empire, Boatright, Scandy White are lifetime hulls, that thing is far from it.
