Sea Ranger 47 Pilothouse 1981

Are you in search of a roomy, budget-friendly trawler that can take you anywhere? Look no further than 'R Time.' This 1981 Sea Ranger pilothouse yacht is a favorite among northern boaters for its protected helm, but it's gaining popularity in warmer climates thanks to its robust design and all-weather cruising capabilities. Built on a sturdy fiberglass semi-displacement hull, it features a narrow beam and a full-length keel that safeguards the propeller. Inside, you'll find a spacious layout with three staterooms, including a generous midships master cabin with a walkaround berth, a guest cabin with upper/lower bunks, and a bow stateroom with a double berth. The boat is equipped with two heads, one featuring a shower stall and the other a marine head with a vanity. (Note: The main head has been replaced, and the second head has been rebuilt with new sanitation lines.) 'R Time' boasts economical twin 165 hp Volvo engines, allowing you to travel safely and securely under any conditions. The salon features a leather sofa and two swivel chairs, all set on varnished wood flooring—no carpets here! The galley is well-appointed with a full-sized refrigerator, microwave, conventional oven, stovetop, and ample storage space, separated from the salon by a breakfast bar. A staircase leads up to the raised pilothouse, which offers excellent visibility from the centerline helm and includes quick-access entry doors to the side decks. A built-in bench seat at the back of the pilothouse can double as an extra berth or seating for companions while underway. The expansive aft area features a heavy-duty dinghy davit (note: the tender is not included), and the elevated flybridge helm provides great visibility all around. There are two stainless steel Bimini frames on the bridge, although they currently lack canvas. The broker comments highlight that 'R Time' is a well-maintained, seaworthy long-range cruiser or liveaboard, perfect for extended journeys or living aboard. While it does need some updates and TLC typical of a boat of its age, the current owners have continually improved it since 2017. With a fantastic interior layout and a clean environment free of unpleasant odors, you could move onboard and set sail tomorrow. If you're handy with maintenance tasks, many updates can be done yourself on breezy days. Don't miss this opportunity in this size and price range! Note: The topsides need painting, the exterior brightwork requires renewal, and the canvas on the bridge Bimini tops needs replacing. Recent updates include a new microwave in 2026, new house batteries in 2025, and extensive mechanical and cosmetic upgrades over the years.
