Ranger Reata 180 VS with a Johnson 115
I was considering purchasing a Ranger Reata 180VS with a Johnson 115
outboard. I currently have a Ranger 350V with a Johnson 115 (it's 20
years old). I haven't had any problems with it with one exception:
it wouldn't pull my fat ass up out of the water on a wakeboard. The
wakeboard was a $90 piece of crap from Wal-Mart. And I've only
wakeboarded once so I'm hoping that that was the problem, not the 115
motor. Anyone else have a Reata 180VS with a 115 HP motor on it. If
so, what is your evaluation of it? Thanks in advance for any help
anyone can provide. |

| I doubt the problem was ever your boat or motor but the pitch of your
propeller. Most bass boats have a prop set up for maximum speed at the
expense of low end power. If you get a prop with a 15 or 17 inch pitch I
bet you could pull a few fat asses out of the water, but your only going to
hit 40 or so top speed. Rich P |

| You don't think the problem could be your fat ass do you?
