Ranger 62 Long Range Cruiser

M/V "Caribou" offers a spacious three-stateroom layout all with ensuites. All ensuites have separate heads and showers (having staterooms on opposite ends of the craft make it easy to say "Yes", when inviting family and friends). The vessel is equipped with upper and lower helms complete with state of the art navigational aids. Lacking nothing, even night vision.

Equipped with slow revving, fuel efficient Twin Scania 550 Diesel Engines, near new Onan Generators 17KVA and 27 KVA. A high capacity Solar array with 5000 Watt inverter, massive refrigeration, two large commercial split system reverse cycle air conditioners supplying the whole vessel, massive fuel capacity, and a large capacity water maker. This vessel can go to sea and stay at sea for months on end, only limited by what food you decide to take.

At refit the vessel was fitted with an oversized Seakeeper M21000 Gyro Stabiliser (this unit requires repairs too, or a new controller), well worth the expense as with the gyro operating the vessel is reported to be rock stable.
