Price just reduced for that early summer crowd. Imagine a 40-foot cruiser with sleeping accommodations for up to six adults, live-aboard accommodations, a complete navigation electronics package and the economy and reliability of diesel power. Imagine its headroom and elbow-room, complete galley and head with shower, and its standard bow and stern thrusters for pinpoint maneuvering.
Now imagine all this-and more-in a trailerable 29-foot hull. That's the idea behind the Ranger R-29, a comfortable family cruiser offering admirable range, a smooth ride, responsive performance and all the standard features you need for a cruise itinerary that could be measured in weeks, not just weekends. Among the R-29's many noteworthy features are two private double staterooms plus a convertible dining banquette that converts to a third berth; a fully-equipped galley that's ergonomically arranged for efficient meal preparation; large view windows and five opening skylight hatches for outstanding light and ventilation. There's even a pilothouse door for immediate access to the foredeck, and a molded-in cabinet in the self-bailing cockpit for refreshment service and additional storage.
Thoughtful extras include a cabin-top rack for securing water toys, crab pots or bicycles; a stainless steel railing system surrounding the transom platform; and a hinged mast for trailering and access beneath low bridges. Options include a diesel generator, enhanced navigation electronics package, autopilot, air conditioning...even a Kyocera solar panel to keep batteries fully charged and to power selected onboard electrical systems and more. Upgrades include new AGM Batteries and the hull has been completely Algripped within the last four years and it sparkles like she just came from the factory. Lady Rebecca has been professionally maintained and stored inside in the off season by the crew at Dion's Yacht Yard in Salem Massachusetts.
