That's a Florida boat.


Yep, but they'll float in Texas too. bolt

Those Florida style flats skiffs are awesome, but best suited to fly fishermen.


I can just see 1Shot on the poling platform eyeing the waters, pointing out the fish as Der Vorsteher waits patiently to suck some more life from 1Shot.

Awesome! So when can we go fishing? The best boats I have ever fished out of were the ones I don’t own.

Which is slower- an aluminum ranger or a fiberglass ranger?

Only new boat I ever bought was a 1986 Ranger 375v. Only warranty work was on motor. The tilt and trim was leaking down and trim sender broke. After a used Tidecraft and Laser both of which came apart I talked to several fiberglass repair folks and they said Ranger hands down. Sold the boat Last year and hull and floor were sound. The boat had the front live well which was known to cause problems with deck bit fix was easy. I will never buy another new one. There is a Champ 22 bay in Marrere La. that I would probably look at if I did not already have one. The only 22 bay I found while looking with a 250 sold before I could get to it. The Champ in La is very nicely equipped.

You do know that the chick in the video on the Ranger website doesn't come with the boat right?

Hell, if you could order them as an accessory then my boat would have cost me twice as much!!!
