2023 Ranger Tugs R-31S Northwest

The R-31 S shares many of the features and qualities of her smaller sisterships but some notable additions to this larger model make her ideal for extended cruising while still being a trailerable trawler. The builders at Ranger Tugs equipped the foredeck with seating and a table that can be raised or lowered depending on whether the boat is under way or at anchor or dock for entertaining.

In addition to the foredeck seating, the R-31 boasts a larger cockpit area with wraparound seating utilizing seats that fold out of the gunwale. When not entertaining, seats are folded leaving the cockpit unencumbered.

The interior layout of the R-31 S features two staterooms—one large island berth forward with en suite head and a midship berth and day head. Those who are familiar with Ranger Tugs models will recognize the galley layout and helm station that maximize interior space. A starboard side door provides easy access from the helm to the side decks so crew can get to the bow for line handling.

Like all Ranger Tugs, the R-31 S comes essentially turnkey with standard features and equipment intended to make her owner’s experience hassle-free and allow for ease of handling and comfort under way. Standard equipment includes bow and stern thrusters and a Volvo D4 320 HP engine that achieves a 16 knot cruise speed.

The Ranger Tugs R-31 S is sold fully equipped and ready to cruise with an expansive selection of premium features and outfitted in one of two packages.

Most commonly used in colder climates where air conditioning would not be necessary. Equipped with diesel forced air heater, and downrigger plugs and pads.
