In my opinion your making a solid decision going to a bay boat. But dont overlook some other brands, Key West, Bulls Bay, Sportsman, Mako. Bunch of them out there.
Looking at these and trying to decide if one will become my next crappie boat. Want something I can use on coast and crappie fish out of. Mainly crappie fish. Seen a couple guys in the club with older ranger center consoles and they look great. Not sure the difference in the Bahia and Bay Ranger. Any input?

PM Feelay, he has the Bay. I know he did a lot of research before he bought. He guides out of his.

Those big Rangers are nice to fish out of whether for Crappie or saltwater fish... I used to have a Ranger 2310 with 300hpuntil last fall. I did the same, took it to the coast for inshore and used it here for all kinds of freshwater fishing. I trolled a lot for crappie with it and it was great. Very roomy and comfortable. Recently downsized to a Ranger RP190. Nothing wrong with the 2310 - had other reasons to downsize. The livewells and storage space on the big rangers are great.
I have fished out of Feelays boat and I loved it.
