Urgently need info , specs, data on the 70's Ranger 37 One-Ton racer/cruiser . Does anyone know where I can get some schematics and/or original owners manual for this boat? How many were built by Ranger - Jensen Marine or Bangor Punta Marine? Have sought info and data from the Web but with little success. Most info is on the designer - Gary Mull and little else about his boat. Thanks for the help !
Ranger 37 Hi, I have owned a Ranger 37 for 13 years and have alot of information. The owners manual is brief. I have manuals for the Volvo MD2B in mine. What do you need? Pete
I am also looking for ranger 37 information. Especially information on the stock 6' draft version. I am on the East Coast and my name is Dan Miller. Thanks. Do you know how many 37's were built
I am trying to find information on a modified ranger 37 from the Great Lakes more than 15 years ago. It's name may have been Frankly Scarlet. Dan Miller (rangernut)
ranger 37 good day, i bought this ranger frankly scarlet back in the early 90s on the bay in norfolk, what to do want to know? the keel and rudder modified by kaufman plans, major improvement that along with the annapolis spar. bill
I believe that there were an even 100 Ranger 37's built in all. They are a good sailing and still competitive in many racing classes. Gary Mull designed some very fine boats during his career.
Yes, I saw it was an old post, but I also saw that no one had ever answered the question of "How many were built?" Since things never die on the internet and you never know who might want an answer I posted what I believe to be the answer. If you have a porblem with that, live with it....
DE, relax... I've got no problem with old IOR boat threads. :laugher
i have one of the rare Ranger 24's.Gary Mull design. I have taken her out on the open ocean in all kinds of crazy weather...she is fast and seaworthy.....great boats which were built in Seattle....
Without a picture I can't be sure, but if it was built in Seattle it is not a Mull designed Ranger 24 (which were actually quite common) but rather a Kent Ranger 24, which was designed by Ray Richards IIIRC. The Mull Ranger 24's were built in L.A.
If any of you see the Ranger Tugs sold and advertised, Built in the same piece of land that the sailboats were made in what is now Kent, south of DesMoines along Hwy 99. Different owners, also build a different brand out in Monroe. Marty

Ranger Yachts
Started by Jensen Marine founder Jack Jensen, (builder of Cal boats).in order to capture more of the east coast USA market. Jensen Marine also had an exclusive design contract with William Lapworth. So a separate company was formed with the design contract given to Gary Mull. First manufactured in Cosa Mesa California, the operation was moved to Florida in 1981. Both companies were purchased by Bangor Punta in 1973 (later acquired by Lear Seigler). In an attempt to consolidate the sailboat lineup, the company management decided that the Ranger line was no longer needed, canceled Mulls contract, and later had most of the Ranger molds destroyed.

Tartan built a number of modified cruising versions of hulls that were for IOR. Some of these boats were only slightly modified and then there is the Tartan 42! It is possible that this 1980 Ranger 37 may have been sold as more of a cruising version. Perhaps someone here knows more about the boat then I do.
