After having it for a cpl days now, I have to say this is the absolutely the best smoothest riding boat I ever had and rode in !!! It handle going across the open lake with ease with moderate boat traffic and breezy conditions !!!! The 70hp yamaha did a awesome job and not one time did I ever feel like I was under power for this boat !!! My family loves riding in it and the kiddo's are asking when can we go back out !!! These are what makes being a dad proud !!!! I do have a few pictures that I can post if I can figure out how to. .

In Springdale ( west columbia )... how far from columbia are you

Where are you at in sc ?

Yes I did

Thanks , I am in Lexington county but live in Springdale ( beside columbia airport )

I appreciate the advice and info.. I'm not a dummy when it comes to boats just electronics and bass boat, I grew up with a high tide ( fiberglass river boat ) with a 60 hp tiller.... I just would like to know how this boat would handle going across the open lake and also the electronics ? Yes I will have a anchor with me always have and always will, it serves multi purposes.

Today I purchased a ranger RT 178 with 2 HDI dsi 7 electronics, got the 70 yamaha 4 stroke. I was in a total mix between the nitro z6 and bass tracker 190 tx with a 115hp. After quite a few trips to the shop and comparing the boats for hours ,I made the final decision that it would be the ranger !!! I will be picking up the boat by weds and I hope to be heading to the lake. Any pros and cons to the boat that I should know about before hand ? How does it ride in choppy water and etc ? How good are these electronics ? I appreciate any info. Thanks in advance
