Black Beauty--Black Stallion--Dark Knight--Whoa Baby!! Big, Wide, Deep and Loaded.
This boat is a half-inch from needing a Wide Load sign when towing. The fully blacked-out look is classy and oh so cool! What a great boat. We outfitted it with max horsepower of 175 and it's a smooth running V6 with fuel injection, stainless steel prop, silver lower unit...

Electronics are called Cup Package 1 and it's a first rate set up. Two Lowrance touch-screen Elite fish finders--9 inch models. Minn Kota 24 volt Ulterra--that's the self-deploying bow troller you see in the TV ads. Of course it has IPilot, spot lock and more. Don't forget, the dashboard on the VX model Ranger boats is fully digital in a touch-screen format. So your sonars and dash are all touch-screen--leave the old-timey button pushing to your buddies on their outdated gear!

This fully welded hull has great design with a formed in running pad for speed and high planing attitude. It has formed strakes for cornering and tracking like a slot car. Full width gunnels you can step on when boarding the boat or rest your arm while fishing and cruising. Those skinny "utility boat" gunnels some other brands use really aren't as useful as the Ranger gunnels. 

Here's a list of specifics:
Fully Welded .125" Aluminum Hull
Mercury 175 Pro XS V6 w/Fuel Injection
Stainless Steel Prop
Tilt Hydraulic Steering
Custom Boat Cover
Vinyl Flooring Cockpit, Bow Deck and Stern Deck
