2009 Ranger Tugs R25SC

Step aboard this R25SC and the first thing you notice is how thoughtfully the space is laid out. The side decks are wide and secure, so lines and fenders are easy to handle even when you’re short-handed. Inside, big pilothouse windows and the overhead hatches flood the cabin with light, making the salon feel much larger than her length suggests. The helm has excellent sightlines in all directions, with everything within easy reach for relaxed, confident handling. Storage is tucked everywhere—under seats, in clever lockers, even in the cockpit—so weekend gear or loop provisions stay organized. The cockpit itself is cozy but surprisingly versatile, ideal for a couple of folding chairs, a fishing rod or two, and sundowners at anchor.

This R25SC is a natural fit for the protected waterways, rivers, and near-coastal routes common in this cruising area. Her efficient hull and modest draft let you slip into quiet coves, shallow anchorages, and smaller marinas that deeper-draft boats must pass by. The enclosed pilothouse and reliable diesel make shoulder-season trips comfortable, whether you’re dealing with brisk mornings or afternoon squalls. Easy docking manners and a compact footprint mean less stress in tight fairways and busy fuel docks. For local boaters who enjoy longer passages without jumping to a much larger yacht, this model delivers serious cruising capability in a manageable, economical package that suits the region’s varied waters.
