Like most folks, maybe all, on this site, I'd prefer to be in a bass boat. But compromising with my family has me looking at a 2005 Ranger Reata 210. Does anyone have any firsthand experience with this boat or another Reata? Wondering how it handles on the water and fishes? Thanks....Dan
Isn't that a type of bassboat only sold in California?

My boat is the deeper version of that boat. I love mine, post this in the fish and ski section for better results.
These boats can be had anywhere in the US not just Cali.

I had a 2005 Ranger Reata 1850 w/ Yam 150hp 4 stroke and it went pretty good for a deep Vee boat. The family enjoy it because we could ski/tube and had enough room up front to do some bass fishing. I even had a top on it to keep everyone cool durning those hot days on the lake.

I have a 2004 190 Reata.......absolutly love the boat......get the deck extension up front. pleny of room to fish and with the seating, windshield and other amenities a perfect boat for the family....Rod Storage is a bit of a challenge but other than that it has a great hull for rough water and very stable fishing platform....I have a 200 OX 66 on mine and it has performed flawlessly.....I can hit 60 with two fisherman and gear....I looked at the 210 and its got a bit of extra room and I wouldnt get it unless it has the 225 on it....these are heavy boats.....
