When you’re ready to venture farther and push your limits, the VS1782 SC Angler has everything you need to succeed. At 17’ 8”, this big-beamed warrior is equipped to take you, your buddies and all your gear into open water. With Ranger® quality and construction underneath you, you’ll be able to focus on finding and fighting fish. The 0.125” aluminum hull is filled with foam throughout and combines with the wood-free robotically welded transom to offer an unmatched, solid feel with flotation levels that exceed standards set by the Coast Guard. Plus, we’ve added more of our famous pultruded fiberglass material throughout, which serves to strengthen the design from bow to stern. Rugged vinyl flooring in the cockpit and marine-grade carpet up front are designed to remain functional and attractive for years. The layout of the VS1782 SC Angler was designed with comfort and fishability top of mind. A 12-gallon front baitwell and divided, aerated 29-gallon rear livewell are easily accessible while massive storage throughout ensures that you won’t have to leave anything behind.
