Research 2022 - Ranger Tugs - R-23

The first thing you will notice when looking at the popular Ranger Tugs R-23 is 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. The R-23 is powered by a 200 HP Yamaha outboard.



The forward cabin on the R-23 has plenty of room for sitting around the teak table, separate sleeping for two or sleeping two together with the filler-cushion. The mid berth is great for kids or storage, and the dinette converts to a sleeper as the third berth. The well-appointed galley on the R-23 is standard with refrigerator/freezer, cooktop, and microwave. The forward head includes a marine toilet with holding tank, shower, sink, and mirror. The Ranger Tugs R-23 comes standard with a Garmin 942xsv GPS chartplotter with sonar and is available with optional xHD radar. VHF to stay in touch, illuminated compass, cabin night light, cockpit and exterior side trail lighting, and our built-in safety trailering lights (brake, turn, and reverse) are all standard equipment making the R-23 ready to cruise. The cockpit on the R-23 is built to fish and ready to entertain with standard rod holders, optional downrigger pads & outlets, and a folding double seat.



The R-23 is perfect for overnighting or extended cruises. It incorporates many of the same amenities as a larger cruising yacht that until now were not offered on a boat of her size and price point. Whether you are new to boating or a seasoned captain, the R-23 is the perfect boat for your next adventure. Get on the water today in the Ranger Tugs R-23!
