This is a great opportunity to own a one owner, 100% freshwater 2025 Ranger Tugs R-23 powered by a Yamaha F200 with only 12 engine hours and Yamaha Extended Warranty until 10/10/2030. The Ranger Tugs warranties are not transferrable. The owner traded her in and purchased a new R-27. We just completed a full buff, wax and detail.
