This isn’t your father’s tugboat. It’s the next-generation of Ranger tugs.
As the latest of the next-generation Ranger Tugs, the 2018 R-27 (27′ LOA, 8′ 6″ beam) follows the design cues of her big sister, the R-29S, with a curved front window and overhead glass atrium that brighten the interior. It offers a fast, dry ride, courtesy of a single Yahama F300 outboard making it the second Ranger Tug model to look outside the hull for power. A bow thruster comes standard to ease docking. Plenty of accommodation space also distinguishes the brand, and the R-27 features a private double cabin forward and an additional salon berth by converting the dining table opposite the galley.
