While the Ranger RP 223FC will work just fine for a lake trip with friends, this pontoon is built with fishing in mind. The 223FC comes with a spacious floor plan packed with seating that makes it work for both, but there’s plenty of extra space to store tackle and rods for your fishing trips. The pontoon is pre-wired for a trolling motor and has two fold-down fishing chairs to keep you comfortable throughout the day. When you’re not fishing, you can take advantage of the fact the boat can hold up to 11 people at a time. All of this comes at a price, however, and that’s about $60,000 to start. This does make it one of the more expensive pontoons on the list, but it’s quite versatile.
Like many pontoons, you can customize the Ranger RP 223FC to your liking. You can choose a different motor — something that’ll either raise or drop the price — and the color. The fish package is what you’ll want to add if you want to use it for fishing, as it comes with a trolling motor that’ll let the boat move through the water quietly.
