CLIFFORD - RANGER TUGS FOR SALE

Overview

“CLIFFORD” is a well‑equipped and thoughtfully upgraded Ranger Tug 31S that stands as a compelling example of this popular cruising model. She delivers an efficient, highly functional layout with impressive interior volume, accommodations for up to six guests, and the versatility to cruise, fish, and anchor comfortably for extended periods. With upgrades that include a 400Ah lithium house bank, a watermaker, and upgraded ground tackle, she is highly optimized for Pacific Northwest cruising.

“CLIFFORD” is powered by a single Volvo Penta D4 300 hp engine with approximately 808 hours. Since new, both of her owners have meticulously flushed the engine with fresh water after each day of operation to prevent salt from sitting in the system—an uncommon level of care that sets her apart from most comparable boats. Her equipment list is particularly strong, featuring upgraded Garmin electronics, autopilot, AIS, Victron Lithium/inverter/solar upgrades, Starlink, a watermaker, Webasto heat, and a tender.

With her gleaming, ceramic‑coated gelcoat in excellent condition, practical arrangement, and extensive cruising upgrades, “CLIFFORD” is ideally suited to buyers seeking a capable, efficient, and comfortable owner‑operated cruising vessel that distinguishes itself among similar offerings on the market.

Extensive maintenance records and documentation of upgrades are available upon request for qualified buyers.

Galley

Designed for effortless entertaining and serious cruising, the galley showcases expansive counter and prep surfaces that invite culinary creativity, while the helm seat cleverly folds down to create additional countertop space when needed. Intelligent use of lockers and shelves maximizes stowage for provisions and cookware, supporting extended time aboard. Cooking is handled with confidence on a Force 10 two-burner stove/oven, complemented by a Muave microwave oven for quick heating. Cold storage is abundant with two Nova Kool refrigerators—one in the cockpit and one in the galley—joined by a Dometic six-bottle wine cooler to keep vintages at the ready. Cleanup is streamlined by a two-basin stainless steel sink in the galley and a single-basin stainless steel bar sink in the cockpit. Alfresco dining is elevated by a Dickinson Mrine Sea-B-Que propane grill on the aft deck, supplied by three propane bottles mounted in a dedicated box on the swim platform.

Salon/dining

On the port side of the salon, directly opposite the galley, a fore-and-aft-facing dinette comfortably seats five to six. The forward seat pivots to serve as the mate’s seat under way or swings back for seamless use with the dinette. For added versatility, the dinette table folds and lowers, and with a filler cushion it converts into a double berth.

Power is routed through a Volvo HS63AD-C transmission to a four-blade bronze nineteen-inch propeller for efficient thrust and smooth acceleration, while a solid bronze rudder ensures positive, reliable helm response.
