@@caseyriggs2633 It is more fuel efficient to run your boat at the fastest point but have the motor gassed down some. I along with many others do not run their boat wide open all the time but will still trim it out in order to more efficient.
My dad just bought a skeeter and we hit a wave the other day a jumped a foot IN THE AIR out of the water but she still runs like a dream and it is a 91
I had a skeeter once. It rode so good I called it the skeeter beater and apologized to my tonnage sons at the time in the event they couldn't sire any children. Oooweeee
Skeeters are definetly fast but them Rangers got the best ride out there. I've never been in a Phoenix or basscat but the outta the ones I've been in skeeters are fastest, ranger ride best
I know this is old but you’re the only person I’ve ever seen or heard say that rangers are the best riding boats. I’ve never been in one so I don’t personally know but I’ve always heard they were one of the worst riding boats. They’ve been in business for a while though so I’ve gotta imagine they’re doing something right
Used to go thru this spot in ontario in my dad's 78 glastron going wide open. It was about 30 feet wide and 5 feet deep. Scary as hell, but what a thrill.
Replying to B.D.- the same could be said about having a fast boat as a bandaid to cover the booboo your ego got when you didn't catch anything worth a shit cause you were driving around all day instead of fishing. I swear I will never understand the need to feel like your faster than another angler. It's fishing not racing. Also 74mph is 74 mph. It doesn't matter what brand your boat is. I cruise at 60. People pass me up all the time thinking they're hot shit. I can hit 81 dry and 77 loaded with fish. But you don't see me racing people on the water. Why? Because I'm trying to keep fish alive, not my ego.
They were hoping for a jumping fish that jumped out of the water, if you can't catch them with the rod you can always try to catch them with a skeeter😁
Hahahahahahahahahahhahaha you’re trolling right? You put a 250 sho on a skeeter you’re lucky to see 72-73. You put that same motor on a bullet, blazer, Allison, or Phoenix and you’ll be 80+ without a flash!
Skeeter for the.win..yall be hating dude is getting it..why you need a fast boat well shit happens like weather lighting let's get outta here..shaking head
Kinda stupid when im in my bass boat its older only 125hp tops out at 50mph but i only go about 30mph. If we was racing get a jet boat with a blown v8. Its a fishing boat
skeeters haul but can't handle rough water. My stratos has a heavier hull and can't keep up but put a chop on the water and it rides like a caddy while sketter owners get their teeth rattled out of their heads
wishinifishin517 ya they can I have a Skeeter with a 250hp vmax Yamaha motor and bring it up to Lake Champlain which has 3 to 4 foot waves and it handles it great
Yea. I have a 19 foot skeeter with a 150 and hands extremely rough water well. Better than most every boat on the water just by observation. Skeeter's are great at riding on top of the chop.
You're racing a guy that doesn't even know he's in the race you're good lol
Likely 😂
No shit
Pretty sure the other dude is full throttle considering the fish tail of water off the back of his boat…
exactly.

I have owned a Ranger1981- 370V and a 1984- 350V. The 80's Ranger Boats were the best.
Great video and two nice boats. All depends on what you're looking for.
Sounds like a Merc on that Skeeter!
My dad just bought a skeeter and we hit a wave the other day a jumped a foot IN THE AIR out of the water but she still runs like a dream and it is a 91
8 gallons of gas was burned in this video
I had a skeeter once. It rode so good I called it the skeeter beater and apologized to my tonnage sons at the time in the event they couldn't sire any children. Oooweeee
What model boat?size motor?top speed?
Guy's, SKEETER is good, but you JUST CAN'T BEAT A RANGER! luv you guys, TIGHT LINES!
VLOG, like a boss man
Ok video, I have a question, can you put that boat in the ocean, about 5 or 5 miles?
What
This is like watching two 18 wheelers pass each other from a bullet owners perspective lol
till the water gets rough....
It's hard to beat a bullet
If you can't beat them fishing, you can always rely on your skeeter. Haha
Fast bass rely on fast Skeeter bass boats to ride in🏁
cool video
Geez! Nice boat, cool video. Too many haters! Why? Cause everybody wants to be the man!
I love my skeeter
The only boat racing was the skeeter. lol
Even if the ranger was racing... skeeters would walk it
Skeeter is faster. And that Ranger was maxed out.
Yeah Skeeter bass boats go like 83 mph with a 250 Mercury ❗️
Ranger all day everyday!!!
what lake is that?
Stoney Lake in the Kawartha region of Ontario, Canada
I bet my 21'Comanche with 250 Yamaha v Max would eat you😁😁😁all tho good video fun to watch😁😁😁😁
Pulzeee. My Triton would tear ur old stratos a new one and u know it!!
Got a gambler faster than both of them..in slick water..if it's rough give me a ranger
BASS! the fastest fish in the water.
GO SKEETER GO.....not even close
Skeeters are definetly fast but them Rangers got the best ride out there. I've never been in a Phoenix or basscat but the outta the ones I've been in skeeters are fastest, ranger ride best
Trey Ferguson a Phoenix or a basscat will smoke a skeeter. Don’t get me wrong I love mine, but I’m not gonna out run either one of them.

O’Doyule rules! O’Doyule, O’Doyule!!!
its riding good
Put them both up for sale now and we'll see who's the happiest.
The happiest will be the guy that doesn't owe anything on his boat.
exactly .
Ahhh I get anxiety seeing how close he was to the bank at the start
Thats the thrill of it!
Some time it’s deeper close to the bank
Used to go thru this spot in ontario in my dad's 78 glastron going wide open. It was about 30 feet wide and 5 feet deep. Scary as hell, but what a thrill.
Stoney Lake !
Lol my Stratos would smoke your skeeter.
tough to catch fish going that fast!!!
@zootman2020 says every owner of a slow boat.
Hey we all need to buy a Skeeter 🐟🎣🏁

Not my ranger Brotendo👋
Mine either!! Especially with my 28 pitch on .. let’s see him race me in four footers lol
Badass dude ! How fast wast you going ?
58 mph! 😂
LoL
58 at 2/3 on the gas
Looked like about 72 to me lol
Is this supposed to be a surprise?
Bullet was the fastest boat I ever rode in.
Luke DAWG jet boat with a built 454 is faster than any bass boat.
Built or not built! Ain’t happening! 😂
Bullet makes great boats you can get them moving
That don't mean crap and I own a skeeter.
ranger dry weight is close to 2000 pounds.
Lead sleds
Skeeter bass boats are fast🏁
Hahahahahahahahahahhahaha you’re trolling right? You put a 250 sho on a skeeter you’re lucky to see 72-73. You put that same motor on a bullet, blazer, Allison, or Phoenix and you’ll be 80+ without a flash!
So u caught a slow Ranger that's trimmed up to high...oooweeee
Thays what i thought. He coulda trimmed it down.
Once he saw what you were doing he hung right there with you. More than likely the guy just didn’t wanna run wide open
Just a couple of buddies running their rigs. Nothing more nothing less.
had a running start,...see the Ranger pop it,....50/50 till Ranger operator said,...I got fish in the livewell!
Ok so you caught up to him fast but barely pulled away looks like to me he wasn’t pegged until you passed him then you both went same speed
Show off 🤣
Sure the ranger is going half throttle
Flat water lol
One boat could have a bigger motor
would not catch my ranger, unless i wanted to be caught..better run 74 or better
You may out run it but your boat want out fish or out live the ranger
What a useless comment.
Lol
Skeeter for the.win..yall be hating dude is getting it..why you need a fast boat well shit happens like weather lighting let's get outta here..shaking head
That ranger does not look to be WOT at all.
he was sand baggin you the ranger he was not wot
Why does it matter? Can't catch fish going that fast anyway.
@@BayJoua Can't catch fish driving in your car either. So what's your point?
Kinda stupid when im in my bass boat its older only 125hp tops out at 50mph but i only go about 30mph. If we was racing get a jet boat with a blown v8. Its a fishing boat
That ranger only had a 75 horsepower engine
The Ranger did not have its motor trimmed properly
The Ranger wasn’t even racing, this guy was fantasying that he was racing the Ranger! 😂
skeeters haul but can't handle rough water. My stratos has a heavier hull and can't keep up but put a chop on the water and it rides like a caddy while sketter owners get their teeth rattled out of their heads
wishinifishin517 ya they can I have a Skeeter with a 250hp vmax Yamaha motor and bring it up to Lake Champlain which has 3 to 4 foot waves and it handles it great

I don’t think you know what your are talking about because my skeeter rides better than my ranger did
I had a zx21 and rode fine in chop... maybe it's the driver you were with
wishinifishin517 everybody says that about the brand they hate
Rangers aren’t built for speed I know I’ve owned two of them
Two minutes of my life wasted watching this... Please smack a log... Lol
It's not hard to catch a ranger
Rangers aren’t hard to catch …
Skeeter= Ice wagon... God forbid there be a chop...balls will be in your stomach!!!
who cares!! I got a yamaha 75hp and damn happy. is not the speed is the fish fool.
Bass like it when they are caught from a fast bass boat, a Skeeter 🏁
yall racing to nothing buncha noobs lmao jk
Without an ENGINE comparison this video is useless !!! You 200PH beat a 115HP. WOW !!!
What a useless comment
They both slow
Mudfish yeah I bet you still fish in a jon boat too
@@samtaylor5631 i do here an there codsack but I'm mostly in my bullet or my stick steer g3🖒
Both are slow
The Ranger is not even setup properly. The rooster tail is too high. You don't even know if he's wide open. Dumb title!
you can see him trim it down a little, and still loses ground. Rangers are slower than Skeeters, do you disagree?
But it still ain’t a ranger son!!!!!!
I’ll take the Ranger.
So would I. Thank you for your valuable comment.
