If you're looking for a boat to cruise the shallow Susquehanna or Juniata Rivers, this is it! 18' long and 60" wide on the bottom makes for a stable, yet maneuverable river boat. With its bare-bones setup, the Rambler weighs less than most 18' all-welded boats on the market which in turn makes this a skinny water specialist. Also, with the lighter than most hull weight, the Rambler performs exceptionally well with just the 40hp Mercury Jet. No need to go to the heavier 90/65 Jet. If you want to make every river longer, and you don't want to hit bottom, the Rambler is the Lowe model to have.
