I have the 2023 RT188P here in S Carolina and I love it except for as you mentioned the condensation inside the port side rod locker and the starboard side storage area. I can handle Lake Murray except for when it gets real windy blowing up white caps. My Merc 115 Pro XS came with a 24"P prop and it sucked. I couldn't get 40 mph. After 1 1/2 years of arguing Ranger finally sent me a 21"P prop and now I hit 46 mph.
Thanks for the info, I’m getting one soon, humidity issue in TN isn’t as bad but my old tracker was terrible about it. I have my own tricks. I’m rigging mine with a Garmin force for that compatibility cause I will probably replace that Lowrance unit in the console and I’m taking my old front Echomap to this boat.
