Broker's Comments: Most Hunter Ranger 265 s are bilge-keel versions. The Hunter Ranger 265 is a small family yacht with an efficient layout for the size of the boat and that can be comfortably stayed in as a family for a holiday or cruise. The yachts are cruisers rather than racers, and are reliable and sturdy sailors. There is over 6 foot headroom in much of the interior, another advantage important to longer cruises. The boat was a popular yacht, with a hundred built between 1994 and 1999.
