Description
The Ranger Tugs R-23 immediately stands out with its dramatic curved windshield, visor, and overhead skylights. Natural light floods the cabin through four opening roof hatches, sliding side windows, and an opening glass bulkhead, creating an airy connection between inside and out. Opening portlights add a refreshing crossābreeze, while a powerful 200 HP Yamaha outboard drives the adventure.
Inside, the forward cabin offers flexible seating around a teak table, with sleeping arrangements for two—either separate or together with a filler cushion. A midāberth provides space for kids or storage, and the dinette converts to a third berth. The galley comes fully equipped with a refrigerator/freezer, cooktop, and microwave, making meal prep effortless.
The forward head includes a marine toilet with holding tank, shower, sink, and mirror. Standard electronics feature a Garmin 943xsv GPS chartplotter with sonar, VHF radio, illuminated compass, cabin night light, exterior trail lighting, and builtāin safety trailering lights, with optional xHD radar available. The cockpit is equally versatile—ready to fish with rod holders and downrigger pads, or entertain with a folding double seat.
Perfect for overnight trips or extended cruising, the Rā23 delivers yachtālevel amenities in a compact, affordable package. Whether you’re new to boating or a seasoned captain, this tug is designed for adventure. Get on the water today with the Ranger Tugs Rā23!
