This remarkable model from Ranger Tugs could be the ultimate trailerable pocket cruiser. It is loaded with smart features for comfort and efficiency.
The boat is designed to make the maximum use of the 23 foot length with an amazing cockpit for lounging and fishing. Ranger Tugs are known for an abundance of thoughtful built-in features like the convertible seating options inside and out and the large aft bulkhead window that fully opens to the cockpit, bridging interior and exterior seating.
From the cockpit the interior has an amazing amount of space for a trailerable boat. A signature feature is the first thing you will notice: the dramatic, curved windshield and visor, accompanied by several overhead skylights. There is no shortage of light or visibility onboard the R-23, which incorporates four opening roof hatches, sliding side windows, and an opening glass bulkhead, providing an open and airy feeling inside and out. Opening portlights also allow for a nice cross breeze in the cabin.
A large convertible dinette to port makes into a double berth. The seat backs swing cleverly to allow for a forward facing companion seat or an aft facing double seat open to the cockpit through the hinged opening bulkhead window. Additionally, a midship double berth is accessed beneath the dinette - a Ranger Tugs exclusive feature. This makes for an ideal berthing space for children as well.
To starboard is a compact galley which still has an electric-alcohol cooktop, refrigerator and freezer, microwave, and stainless steel sink.
Forward to starboard is the comfortable helm seat. The controls include a bow thruster for convenient maneuvering. A full featured Garmin navigation suite includes an optional autopilot and HD radar. The electronics provide full instrumentation for fuel flow monitoring and other controls. These include:
- Color engine display
- Digital fuel flow data
- 9" Garmin navigation system w/ GPS and sonar
- Helm drink holders: 2
- Helm seat: bolstered
- USB charging ports

Forward is the private double cabin. The V-berth converts to a double berth with inserts. The cabin has a vanity with sink and a marine head compartment with shower. There is plenty of ventilation and light in opening ports and an overhead hatch.

Broker's Comments
Here is an opportunity to own the incredible, ever-popular Ranger Tug 23. If you are considering purchasing this model, I suggest making this one a " must-see." It has been lightly used, loaded with $26,000 of factory options, and just came from the boat yard with fresh bottom paint. There are only 60 hours on the engine and the 50 hour service has been completed. Currently this boat is turn key ready for you to load the groceries, your fishing and personal gear, the water toys and start your Northwest cruising adventures.
These boat details are subject to contract.
