Ranger 24

The Ranger 24 is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed by Raymond H. Richards as an International Offshore Rule Quarter Ton class racer-cruiser and first built in 1974.

The design was built by Ranger Fiberglass Boats in Kent, Washington, United States (not to be confused with Ranger Yachts), starting in 1974, but it is now out of production.

The Ranger 24 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. The hull has a single hard chine and positive flotation, making the boat unsinkable. It has a masthead sloop rig, a raked stem, a plumb transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed swept fin keel. It displaces 3,150 lb (1,429 kg) and carries 1,400 lb (635 kg) of lead ballast.

The boat has a draft of 4.00 ft (1.22 m) with the standard keel.

The boat is normally fitted with a small 3 to 6 hp (2 to 4 kW) outboard motor mounted in centerline well, for docking and maneuvering.

The design has sleeping accommodation for four people. The galley is located on the port side just forward of the companionway ladder. The galley may be optionally equipped with a gimballed stove and oven, and a refrigerator. Cabin headroom is 67 in (170 cm).

For sailing the design is may be equipped with one of a series of jibs or genoas.

The design has a PHRF racing average handicap of 216 and a hull speed of 5.0 kn (9.3 km/h).
