2026 Ranger RT188 with a Mercury 115 PROXS CT, Minnkota Edge 70 Trolling Motor, Eagle 7 @ Console, Tilt Steering, Boarding Ladder, 3 Bank On Board Charger, Ranger Trail Trailer, Swing Away Tongue, Aluminum Wheels and Matching Spare.
Since its debut, the RT188 has delivered tournament-level performance and fishability in a package that boasts huge value, comfort and convenience. A larger-than-most front deck leads the pack in stability and fishability; you won't be stepping on your rods due to a cramped, narrow bow design. The smart layout continues with a recessed trolling motor foot pedal, an 8-foot, 6-inch center rod and tackle locker that's flanked by two massive storages. A handmade fiberglass console houses electronics up to 12 inches as well as precision steering and rocker switches. The back deck is highlighted by a divided, recirculating livewell and dual storage boxes that offer a perfect fit for the most popular tackle box sizes. Underneath this proven interior lies a world of Ranger's signature flotation foam for upright, level flotation and an all-welded, wood-free superstructure. When combined with a custom-matched Ranger Trail trailer, the RT188 offers Uncommon Performance At Every Level.
