1977 Ranger 175A, even though dmv couldn't find that to put on the title. 2003 Johnson 115 two stroke starts easy and runs great. 43# Motorguide. Very nice, smooth-riding boat that will do 46 mph with the livewells full. Plenty strong enough to pull a skier or tube if you wanted. Front baitwell or livewell and rear livewell. Amber interior lighting so the bugs don't bother ya. Absolutely everything works on it except the trim gauge. Never bothered me, so didn't try to see if I could figure it out. New carpeted steps on the trailer, new rims and tires this spring. 4 brand spanking blue and white seats that I will not install in case it has to sit over the winter. Good trailerable cover as well as Bimini top! Bilge stays dry as a bone. Has a cheap, small fishfinder. Maybe Lowrance. $4600 $ 4200 $4000 $3900 Daviess County     |

What was the 1st year of ranger bass boats? My fishing partner has one very close to this vintage and that thing is awesome to fish out of.
Smooth and fast. If he would upgrade his trolling motor to a wireless it would be our 1st choice over my boat.

Before that they were fiberglass that just looked like aluminum flat-bottom jon boats. |

When I first saw the title of this thread I thought it was going to be about a park ranger porn star. Whew, glad it’s just a boat! 😁

The boat's nice, the motor is great! BUT, I've already got my 18 footer that I used the last half of last year and I need to get this one out of my inventory of boats and vehicles.  Plates and insurance isn't that much, but every bit of savings helps when you're insuring an 18 year old female!! |

I honestly thought 1/2 the lookers would be thinking the same thing and then just try to sell the boat with their motor. But everyone was asking more questions about what shape the boat was in and why I was selling it. Dealt with a bunch of tire kickers!! |
