The Ranger has been setting in a cradle for over 3 to 4 years. The owner left it at the marina and didn't return. The sale would be a sherrif sale and it could go for any amount the minimal amount is 5000 the amount due to the marina. It is kind of big for flathead lake so few have looked into it. I did this summer at a race weekend when I was crewing on another boat. You are right Melissa it is a fast boat. The only weakness is an atomic 4 engine. I have not surveyed it yet but I did a thumping on all of the bottom and all is well. It has a huge sail inventory Spin, 165, 150, 130, 110, Main X2 and Drifter. I have only opened the bags and did not examine the details. I am thinking of getting it and placing it in a marina in Seattle area and use it for a vacation home on Puget Sound. I haven't convinced my DW yet and hope to by this summer.
After sinking my boat in a storm of the century everyone who knows me won't get in the sailboat with me. They think I am jinxed. I think I am blessed I came home. My DW thinks I am dangerous. I have told her that anywhere we sail sinking this one is almost impossible. That didn't work either. LOL
