    RT188 Under Seat Storage

    With the coin box option on a new RT188 ordered from the factory, is there still full storage under the seating/coin box area, the same as with the middle seat option?

    There's still storage underneath the coin box area, you just have to access it from either the driver or passenger seat opening.

    I have an RT178 with a coinbox. It's the same coinbox as the RT188. I really like mine. It's fiberglass...well made and very study.

    Pipercub, can you post pics of your under seat storage also when you have time? I would like to see how it compares to the storage with the middle seat option.

    It's a 2018. I added it as an option when I purchased the boat. It was installed at the factory. They had just started offering it about the time I ordered my boat. I think I paid $253.00 dollars extra for it.

    Wow that looks super nice! Was hoping for someone to say that you could buy this separately and slap it on but it looks like you'd have to change up the board where the passenger and middle seats are.

    I really like that and have my eye on a Ranger RT... lurking here for a while ... learning and reading. Beautiful boat.

    Love the layout and colors and that center console. I don't need a seat there....

    why do they call them coin boxes? it's not like we keep change to pay tolls. I have one on my boat but can't find where to put coins.

    I’m wondering the same thing . From the pics posted it looks like it may have some front hang over which might prevent you from opening up the passenger seat all the way with it mounted on the older boats with out modifying the box lids .

    It's all good !
