Hey all.
I'm excited to get started on this thing soon under the supervision of you experienced captains.
This is (as the title suggests) a 1974 Ranger II. I got the boat, motor, trailer, seats, a couple depth finders and a fire extinguisher and a brand new set of trailer lights all for a crisp $100 bill.
The interior is all fiberglass and feels real solid. Transom has no give or flex to it at all.
Outboard is not currently running, but looks like it won't need much.
Trailer needs a bit, but tires are decent and it pulls okay. I still want to pull the hub caps and check the bearings to be sure.
The plan is to update the interior to make it much more usable as a bass/crappie boat. I'm going to keep the exterior as original as I can. Currently the layout is HORRIBLE and the livewell is more of a baitwell and can't be opened if the captain's char is in place. Seats are too high and the front deck is too low.
