Marketing Description
Introducing Tamariu a Hunter Ranger 265 which has been well cared for by her current owners. The Ranger 265 is an excellent first yacht, combining ease of handling, comfort, and solid British build quality. This bilge keel version is particularly well-suited to new owners, offering the freedom to explore tidal waters, take advantage of drying moorings, and enjoy all those creeks and bays bigger fin keelers can't access. Designed by David Thomas, the Ranger 265 balances forgiving sailing performance with a surprisingly spacious interior — ideal for couples or young families. Stable, reliable, and easy to manage short-handed, she’s the perfect step into safe and enjoyable cruising.
