173/188 Rebel

View Larger Image With New Higher Sides, More Than Performance Has Been Elevated.

The 173 and 188 Rebels have raised the bar... yet again. Both now feature a full 34" side height and wider 92" beam for increased freeboard and more stability on the water. Stand inside and you'll instantly experience how comfortable and safe this redesign feels, particularly when you lean far over the side to land a fish or lend a hand. The Weldcraft Rebel is a roomy and simple vessel with a level of quality and value that will surprise you. It's priced lower than many other boats in its class, but measures up extremely well against them especially when it comes to on-the-water performance. The Rebel is built with a 72" bottom, reverse chines, and 24° bow entry vee tapering to 14° deadrise at the transom. It features a direct transom engine mount to maximize interior space. All the necessities are there as well: a deluxe console, pedestal seating, walk-through windshield, and a wide-open deck. (Your Weldcraft dealer will help you add everything else you want.) It's the best of all worlds, and it's comfortable in all the lakes, rivers and bays you enjoy exploring.

Measure It All Up

The 173 and 188 Rebels interior space has been expanded by approximately a foot. The forward movement of the windshield and bulkhead coupled with a modification to the splashwell has increased the interior useable space to be the most in class.
