Ranger Tugs | Equipped for the PNW

Ranger Tugs and the family behind them have an extensive history with boatbuilding, primarily Maxum and Bayliner and now Ranger Tugs and their cousin Cutwater. The designs have always had wide appeal to PNW boaters and pricing within reach of most boating enthusiasts.

Why they're popular

  – Standard features include everything most boaters want in a south sound cruiser: Radar, autopilot, AIS, VHF, diesel furnace, bow thruster, inverter, etc. The boats are generally loaded.
  – 4-season comfort. Fully enclosed salon without the need for canvas and near 360 views. Most models have 5 forward seating positions that allow crew to get out of the weather and face in the direction of travel.
  – Lots of innovations to make dual use of space.
  – They're faster than traditional trawlers and very efficient on plane. In rough water, the fine entry point cuts bow slap and windshield spray.
  – Vessels are delivered with most every safety or docking kits beginning boaters may not own (this one's turnkey). The new boat factory delivery process includes a free 2-day training session, charts, and fuel. There's also an active community of Ranger Tugs owners.
  – Trailerable and light! You can easily tow most models across the Cascades and onto fresh water destinations! With downrigger plates, plugs and kicker brackets, they're set up nicely for salmon, crab and shrimp.

Things to consider:

  – It's a perfect boat for a cruising couple who want to be mobile (and back to work on Monday). The beam is 8' 6" to avoid trip permits/trailering restrictions. Trailerability is a trade-off that affects stability and comfort aboard; the guest and convertible berths are great for kids. This vessel does not have a trailer but they're available.
  – These are built for lakes and protected waters and to be fast and efficient. That means some of the components are lighter-duty (that's necessarily not bad). They're manufactured in Kent and Monroe Washington and most spare/replacement parts are readily available at Fisheries Marine Supply in Seattle.
