Ranger Tugs R-23 - In stock!
On-site and ready for you to come to see it!
When it comes to trailerable tugs, none stand out quite like the Ranger Tugs R-23. The compact R-23 packs a whole lot of boat into its deceptively compact frame. Step aboard via the extended rear swim platform. The open cockpit provides room for fishing or simply enjoying the day.
But the real magic starts when you open up the cockpit glass and step inside. That's where a port-side dinette offers the first glimpse of the ingenuity in this design. The seatback at the forward end of the dinette flips to offer either aft-facing seating while dining or forward-facing seating while underway. But the other seat back cushion aft also flips the same way. The huge glass window forming the aft wall of the salon opens right up, allowing you to flip the seat cushion forward and sit in the frame for the best perch in the house.
