22 Foot Ranger Bay Boats For Sale

The 22 Bay Ranger, sold as the Ranger 2200, is a 22-foot inshore fishing boat built to cover the kind of water that runs from skinny flats to open bays. The 22-foot length lets it work large fisheries like Tampa Bay, the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic without leaving you stranded offshore. It suits an angler who wants a single boat capable of inshore, nearshore and offshore fishing in the same day.

The hull pairs a sharp V-entry at the bow with a reverse chine that pushes spray away, and a gusset running under the rail all the way to the stern channels stray water back from the passengers. From roughly midship and the console aft the bottom flattens out, with about 14 degrees of deadrise at the stern. That layout drafts as little as 11 to 12 inches, which is what gets you into tidal creeks and onto grass flats.

Shallow-water performance leans on two key components. A Bob's jack plate adds 7.5 inches of vertical lift to raise the engine high enough to get on plane in thin water and protect the grass flats below. Trim tabs do double duty: leveling an uneven load, tilting the boat onto its side in quartering seas to keep passengers dry, and tabbing all the way down to limit bow lift when you're trying to put the hull on the pad in skinny water.

Storage is built around fishing gear. The bow holds a cavernous anchor locker with room for a couple hundred feet of rope and scope, plus a trolling motor plug mounted inside and protected from the elements. A centerline storage locker runs forward under the front deck and includes a forward live well so live bait can be kept up front rather than walked back to the stern. Two carpeted rod lockers run roughly 9 feet up into the hull, swallowing everything from tall spinning rods to stand-up gear while protecting reels and finishes.

Details throughout are recessed, from the popup cleats to the latches, keeping line from snagging. The console is sized to mount electronics and accessories without crowding the path to the front deck, and there's open toe room underneath it that matters the first time you fish barefoot and when you're cleaning with a dock brush. The cockpit leaves room to chase a hooked fish from the bow back to the stern.

Bait capacity is a strong point. The lean post live well holds nearly 40 gallons, with fill and recirculate switches placed on the outside of the tank for easy reach. An aft bait storage well and live well adds a second tank so you can keep bait fresh and lively across a long day. For an angler shopping a 22-foot Ranger bay boat, the combination of a 40-gallon lean post well, twin carpeted rod lockers and an 11-to-12-inch draft defines what the 2200 is built to do.
