New Ranger Bay 2180

Picked up this 2005 Ranger Bay. Heavy boat, but rides very dry.

Installed an iPad with Navionics for chartplotter and Ray Marine DragonFly Pro5 with Wi-Fish for depth sounder. Also added two more rod holders to console.

The first pic here shows the depthsounder in the Navionics app.

Will do, see you already have a spot to mount a power pole controller, looks like there was one before. Engine a two stroke?

Wow, nice sled there. Congrats. Where did you find that mounting bracket for your iPad?

nephew has a Ranger like that. incredibly well built and laid out boat. you're right about the ride too. we fish together a lot and we take my Pathfinder if we're going skinny in the marsh and his Ranger if we're going jetties, offshore or open bay on windy days. his has a 250 e-tec. great boat!

That was where the Hydraulic jackplate control was mounted. The pump went out, so I have to replace it one day.

Engine is a fourstroke. Needs a few more ponies, but it'll do the job for the price I paid.

Mounting bracket for the iPad is a Railblaza Screengrabba with a RAM Mount behind it.

What'd your average top speed loaded with that 4stroke? I have the same boat (2001) with a 225 Evinrude with a 19P 3 blade Renegade prop at 50mph and 5700 RPM. Wish it was 10mph faster but that's the only knock on a excellent boat.
