RANGER Z520 COMANCHE – The Ultimate Tournament Bass Boat – Ranger Boats is well known for building the most popular bass tournament boats on the water. For some anglers, it doesn’t get any better than a Z boat; others swear by a VX. So we’ve cross-pollinated the two to come up with a high performance design destined to turn heads on and off the water. Touting an ultra-responsive, high performance hull design, the all-new Z520 Comanche is quick on its feet and firmly focused on fishing. Measuring 20 feet, 9 inches with a 95-inch beam, the Z520 Comanche is rated for a beefy 250 horsepower, to get drivers to their favorite spot and back to weigh in when time is of the essence.
