They say big things come in small packages, and the Ranger R-255C boat is a perfect example of that.

The new R–25SC boat cockpit (aft deck) is 25% larger than the original R–25, giving it nearly 50 Square feet of aft deck space. Designed to provide maximum comfort and versatility in an easy-to-own, easy-to-operate trailerable boat, the R–25SC offers a full 8-½-foot beam for roomy on-deck areas and large interior spaces. 

Private compartments allow sleeping accommodations for up to five. There’s an enclosed head with shower, sink and marine toilet, a helm with full instrumentation and an optional navigation package. The inviting galley includes a sink, stove and refrigerator. Large cabin windows and overhead skylight hatches help brighten the interior and offer a panoramic view all around.

The expanded self-bailing cockpit is ideal for fishing or outdoor relaxation; a transom door leads to the full swim platform, and there’s room atop the deckhouse for stowing anything from crab pots to kayaks. The new larger cockpit lends itself to more above and below deck storage and makes for easy access to the standard 150 HP Volvo D3 diesel. The engine is located entirely outside of the cabin making for smooth, quiet cruising, delivering exceptional fuel economy, even at planing speeds.

Available options allow customizing the Ranger R–25SC for comfortable year-round cruising and effortless operation. Yacht sized features like standard bow and stern thrusters provide for excellent maneuverability around the dock and the 8’6” beam allows the boat to be easily trailered.
