1988 Arima Sea Ranger 17 Boat in Port Townsend, WA 98368 US
Sea Ranger 17
2 Engines (Mercury, YAMAHA)
17 feet
Gas
Fiberglass/Reinforced
Despite its compact sub-17-foot length, Arima intentionally carried over the signature dimensions of its larger siblings to maximize safety and deck space:
- Beam: 8 feet. Like the 19 and 21, it features an incredibly wide beam for its length, offering massive stability and preventing the boat from rocking aggressively in rough water.
- Dry Weight: 1,430 lbs. It is exceptionally lightweight, meaning it can easily be towed by smaller, fuel-efficient SUVs and handles well with a modest 90 HP outboard motor.
- Cabin Space: It retains a functional cuddy cabin V-berth. Impressively, because of the wide beam, tall anglers up to 6'4" can still lie completely straight inside the cabin.
- Fuel Capacity: 27 gallons standard, though many were custom-rigged with dual 10-gallon saddle tanks to expand overall cruising range.
- Because Arima moved away from the 17-foot mold for the Sea Ranger line to optimize factory production for the 19 and 21, the Sea Ranger 17 is highly sought after on the used market by solo fishermen looking for the ultimate pocket-trawler footprint.
