Ranger deck height. Diffrence 364 to 361

[Champion184]

Does the deck height diffrence of the casting deck between the ranger 364s and 361s realy make that much of a diffrence? Its only a few inches?

I have the 362 (duel console version of the 361). I have fished may times out of both and I personally prefer the higher deck. Not only is it easier to flip or pitch in tight cover your standing higher and possibly help minimize impacts while casting to the trolling motor, windshield, graph, etc. Also, the higher deck gives you more volume in the storage spaces and just easier to step in and out of at dock. However, things could bounce out easier with the higher deck.
