Phil,

Basically the specs for the 184 Ghost are identical to the 183 Ghost but the hull has had a design change to accomodate a 175HP engine.  The 183 Ghost had a max 150HP rating with the demand from more tour anglers and customers for more speed Ranger Boats filled the gap with the new 184 Ghost.

I personally ran the Ranger 184 with a Evinrude E-tec 150 HO and it acheived a speed of 53 to 54 mph at 5500 rpm's, plenty fast for me. With a 175HP engine you can expect even greater performance out of the new 184 Ghost!

How does the 184 handle rough chop compared to the 191 cayman at speed.

The 184 Ghost handles rough chop very well and is shallower and quieter than the faster 191 Cayman but the 191 is a heavier and an overall longer hull which equates to great rough water handling.

You really can't make a bad choice between the two boats, take a test drive at a dealer then make up your mind...
