The R-27, which is positioned between the builder’s 25 and 29, offers the comfort and fuel economy of a larger trawler in a smaller package that also gives owners the option of going faster and exploring more anchorages on in a nimble craft. Who is it best suited for? A couple can cruise comfortably aboard, particularly if that couple wants a boat that won’t eat up their retirement savings in monthly payments and operating costs. Sure, you have to make some compromises here (that narrow beam, for instance, makes for slim sidedecks), but there are big benefits, too. Among them is performance.

The Ranger 27 is powered by a single 180-hp Yanmar 4BY2 turbocharged 4-cylinder common rail diesel engine. As you might guess, speed is not this boat's strong point, but range is. Even at a “fast” cruise between 13 and 15 knots, the boat will travel about 200 miles on a tank of fuel, which equals about two eight-hour days between fill-ups. For more efficient runs, throttle back to 7.5 knots and take in all of the sights while enjoying savings at the pump.

We like the fact that the R-27 comes standard with both bow and stern thrusters. These electric units will go a long way toward reducing the amount of stress the captain shoulders when approaching an unfamiliar dock. For those who are new to boating, this equipment is especially nice. Thrusters, and engine controls, are operated from the helm that’s adjacent to a clever companion seat arrangement. It’s a bi-fold seat that allows two passengers to sit facing forward and help the skipper keep watch. But when the hook is down and provisions are broken out, the seat folds the other way to become part of the dinette. The dinette is served by a galley with a propane stove and oven.

Even with an LOA of just 27’1”, Ranger Tugs also manages to offer a good-sized cockpit that can accommodate as many as four fold-up chairs, which means you can invite the couple in the next slip over to join you for drinks at sun down. Hatches in the sole make for easy access to equipment and systems. Beyond the cockpit is a 78”-wide swim platform. On its aft edge, the builder installed three permanent fenders so you can tie up your dinghy without worrying about scratches.
