2022 Ranger Tugs R-25

This 2022 R-25 has been lived with gently, not just used, and it shows. Freshwater running and indoor winter storage mean fittings, gelcoat, and hardware have been spared the usual corrosion and sun fatigue you see on many tugs. The hunter green hull gives it a classic pocket-yacht look that turns heads at the dock and in the marina. With under 25 hours on the Yamaha, you’re essentially getting a nearly new powertrain that’s barely through break-in. Paired with the included trailer, this setup opens up the kind of cruising flexibility—new lakes, new rivers, new marinas—that permanently moored boats simply can’t match.

This R-25 is an ideal match for local waters that mix tight harbors, shallow coves, and open stretches where weather can change quickly. Its outboard power and trailerability let you launch where conditions are best and chase the season instead of waiting on it. The efficient hull is happy at relaxed trawler speeds for sightseeing days, yet has the power to outrun a squall or make longer hops between ports. Protected seating, full canvas, and a true cruising interior mean you’re comfortable when evenings cool down, while the generous swim platform makes the most of warm, quiet anchorages close to home.
