have run my RT 178 (2013 model) on TN river lakes (chickamaua, guntersville, nickajack and a bunch of others down here in the Southeast) handles water well. you will love it. Fishes better than great and can hold longer rods (I get up to 7.5 foot rods in mine). I did get the 75 optimax with mine and 'cruise' at 4900 - 4950 rpms (30-31mph GPS). have it upgraded with Lowrance HDS Gen2 touch units bow and console. side imaging on console. 80lb Ultrex with spot lock. on-board 3-bank charger... new marine master trailer. available for sale if anyone is interested. :) ;) nothing but good things to say about the RT series. specifically the RT 178. won't necessarily be a tournament boat for anyone on 'big water' but it fishes great with two, up to 3 people in it. and handles perfectly for anyone out by themselves. easy to load, easy to trailer. just a wonderful 'little' boat that fishes way bigger than it looks. congratulations!
How long is that boat from the back of the engine to the fold on the trailer… ? I noticed it’s sideways in your garage I’m just wondering if it would fit in mine…
Dang dude, that boat is so fresh! I cant wait to see some videos on this beast of a boat. Congrats dude!🙏
Thank you! I’m really excited!

Great review. man that boat is NICE!!!!
Tournament at brookville? I’ll make a video
Really nice boat 👍👍👍
Nice 👍
Nice. Is the trailer made of steel channel beam or rectangular tube? Can't tell from the video. Ranger trailers used to be steel channel beam.
Rectangular tube unfortunately
Are you still liking the 178?
Nice video and good looking boat, It's been almost a year now any updates since you made this one?
Appreciate it! I’ve made a few updates here and there but nothing more than a new trolling motor. I’m making a 1 year review video soon!
Nice boat bro…🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Appreciate it!
