2025 Ranger Boats VX1888WT

The New Big Water Standard
The VX1888 is a legitimate contender in all fisheries, in all conditions. It’s got the brute strength to take on rollers, swells, and the fiercest competition. It’s also got the manners, storage, and comfort for families who like to do it all. Premium features throughout start with the custom fiberglass consoles that pair with handmade seating and grippy, marine-grade vinyl flooring. Twin livewells, a lockable center rod locker, standard electronics and trolling motor and an optional kicker make the VX1888 a formidable contender on derby day while padded front seating, rear jump seats, and enough grunt to tow skiers and tubes make for perfect play days. The Ranger® RIDE™ touchscreen display keeps critical boat and engine functions at your fingertips.
