MuskieJunkie Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I've been looking for a Ranger Reata, Crestliner Sportfish, or Lund Fisherman and I came across a Triumph 191 Fish and ski. I don't know a lot about them, apparently they're made from a special plastic type material, not fiberglass.Anyone have any opinions on them, good or bad.

hunterjoe Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Looks like a nice rig. Do you know how they're priced? I may take a look if they're in my price range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solbes Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I was looking through my paper from last weekend. I think some of the local Lund and Ranger dealers had a good deal advertised on a Ranger Reatta. 28k for 1850 with Yamaha 150 (>10k off)? I always thought they were priced higher. Seems like a good deal to me. Similarly sized Lunds were priced more or comparable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuskieJunkie Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 Trimphs HSOforum lists it at just over $40k with the Yamaha 150 and some other options. Which I can't believe. At that price I'd take the ranger for sure.I'm not looking at buying new, I saw a one owner 2004 for sale that has peaked my intrest.

hydro Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I looked at their HSOforum as well and it looks like a very tough and well made boat. I'd say it's worth a look and a test drive if the asking price is in your budget. Be sure to crawl in and under everything to see the workmanship in the rigging. That's a sign of care and good manufacturing process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traveler Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I looked into them a few years ago, they were called "Logic" boats at that time. Then I nearly bought a 17 footer a couple years ago while looking for a center console. They get fair reviews on the boat sites...pluses would be toughness, lower cost vs. gel coated boats of similar quality; minuses...hulls tend to warp sometimes, finish isn't as smooth as gel coat, general fit and finish isn't top shelf. Even so, I'd have bought the one I looked at for the price, but it was a size smaller than I was looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassNspear Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 there tough, you can beat them with a bat, and nothing is goign to happen to them. You dont have to have a bigger motor on them either, becuase they plan faster then fiberglass. There a awesome reort boat, and alot of the resorts up north and in canada are using them becuase they last forever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
