I am sure this has been discussed before, could not find much on the PT18. I am in process of selling 20 Bay Reef boat, done with saltwater. Going back to freshwater and the 50-60k boats are not where I want to be. Love the Crestliner front deck, huge ! But the quality seems to be in the Ranger. Have looked at both, at dealers and on internet, in same price range . Any thoughts would be appreciated.
