Broker's Comments

The Ranger Tugs line has revolutionized the trawler market by developing trailerable pocket trawlers that offer large-boat features and comfort for extended cruising. The R-29 has created excitement and achieved recognition in a short time and is in active demand. It appeals to a wide range -- people new to boating, people moving up in size, and even people moving down in size.

Waterline Boats / Boatshed Seattle is fortunate to offer this excellent example of a Ranger Tugs R-29 with its unbelievably complete equipment list and in superb condition.

The boat is cute -- no denying that. But its attractiveness is more than skin deep. You'll find a large cockpit, exceptional all-round visibility from the helm, a bright and airy interior, a roomy master stateroom, a large head/shower compartment, a private guest stateroom, and topside storage for all variety of water "accessories". Plus she'll get up and go with its semi-displacement hull and 260 hp Yanmar diesel.

This boat was the 2012 Seattle Boat Show display boat and today shows very nice care. The sellers are interested in extended cruising for months at a time and have ordered a new larger boat in order to accommodate that goal.
