Get the Ranger with a 115 pro xs. That would be a bad little boat.

Make sure to stock up on ear plugs....you will need them in that metal boat!  Wind is another issue with metal boat....sucker will spin around too easy. I had a 18' metal bay boat for many years. Sold it for $750. 
You can avoid having ulcers by adapting to the situation: If you fall in the mud puddle, check your pockets for fish. ~Unknown
Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life youre living.
No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.

Can you rent one for a couple days, week and see how they actually handle where you want to fish?

Good choice on the aluminum center console. That's a very versatile boat. Check out the SeaArk as well.
The solution to any problem - work, love, money, whatever - is to go fishing, and the worse the problem, the longer the trip should be. --John Gierach ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/09/full-13-25328-gco.jpg)

After looking at both, I would go with the Ranger.
He is truly a sick individual.

Id buy the boat you like the most. A little more of a drive that you will seldom make isnt that big of a deal IMO. This, except I'd say "YOU buy the boat you like the most..." I ain't buying you a boat, but that is a very kind offer from Paul.
