Has anyone seen the new Ranger in person? It's supposed to have carbon fiber, but does anyone know where on the boat? Is the carbon fiber used in any structural areas or is it just aesthetic stuff for looks. Sounds like a lighter and faster boat...

I am a Ranger guy but the consoles look like the front of a riding lawnmower. Super ugly!! Other than that, I like it.

I kind of like it. There's not a price listed but I will predict the use of CF will add $8-$10K to the price of the boat.

Man, these bass boat prices are getting out of control. Pretty soon a 20' Ranger will be the same price as a 26' Mako offshore. Ouch!

Just give Ranger a few more years. Maybe a Limited Edition, carbon fibre, 22'er, with a turbocharged 300hp SHO, twin power poles, twin 360 electronics, etc. sarcastic

Glad I got mine this year. Scary to see how much the cost jumps year to year.

What is the cracked ice is a "power ventilated rod and storage locker?"

Are they adding things just to add to the price? I guess in the words of Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man "It's better to be dead and cool than alive and uncoool."



When in doubt, jerk.
