Research 2020 - Reata by Ranger - 180C

~Small size, Big Fun

It's often said that good things come in small packages, and this truism reflects the new Ranger Classic Series 180C. With a 20' length, full-width swim platform and 75HP rating, this pontoon is ready for economical fun year-round. A spacious layout gives room for entertaining and cruising while ample storage lets you bring along scores of gear for any activity. A 9' Bimini top deploys with fingertip effort and locks into place when not in use. Ranger's PowerPod™ and RapidRise™ strakes combine to deliver sharp handling and enhanced performance all while providing quieter operation by moving the outboard back. No matter what's in store, the 180C is a Small Size that delivers Big Fun.
