Easy to handle short-handed with her self-tacking jib and stable hull form, she is equally at home on inland waters or coastal passages. She is also easy to beach with her big keels, making her a versatile and capable choice for UK cruising. The design has also been well received and recognised within the industry, reflecting its strong reputation among cruising yachts of its era. ## Accommodation - MAIN SALOON - The Hunter Ranger 265 features a spacious saloon with a central folding dining table and comfortable seating to port and starboard. Storage cubbies are built into the areas behind the seating, providing convenient stowage while maintaining a clean, open layout. Large windows bring in plenty of natural light, creating a bright and practical living space for cruising and relaxing aboard. The boat also benefits from a full sized chart table with storage. - AFT CABIN - The private aft cabin offers a spacious double berth beneath the cockpit, providing comfortable accommodation for two adults. Benefiting from the yacht’s generous beam, it delivers impressive space rarely found in a yacht this size, along with practical storage. - FWD CABIN - The forward cabin features a comfortable V-berth with good storage, providing practical accommodation for two. - GALLEY - The compact L-shaped galley is well designed for its size, offering a cooker, sink, and practical storage. - HEADS - The heads compartment is fully enclosed and compact, fitted with a marine toilet and washbasin. ## Mechanical and rigging -
