Had a man tell me that his dealer priced him a RT188 rigged with an 150hp outboard. Is this true that newer 188’s are rated for a larger outboard? Thanks.....

Unless there is a new model that isn't listed on the website that is not correct. RT188 and RT198 is pretty easy to get mixed up. Currently according to Ranger's website RT188's are rated for max HP of 115 this includes the RT188P.
Sounds like BS to me.

I’ve got one, but it also has a jet unit on it.

I figured it wasn’t true. He also stated his dealer quoted him on an Express boat with a150hp outboard and they were in the same price range. He ordered the Express boat because of the special flooring they offer that Ranger can’t get. Thanks for the info....

Before I sold mine I thought about repowering my RT188 with a Suzuki 140, it weighed exactly the same as my 115 Evinrude, would have been cheaper than a 28K Tracker.
