(Joe has since removed his Ranger 28 from sale. Sorry. Editor)

One of Boat de Jour’s readers has decided he would like to sell his 1976 Ranger 28-2. Joe is listing his Ranger ‘as is, where is’ which is at Lynn Creek Marina on Joe Pool Lake in Grand Prairie, TX midway between Dallas and Fort Worth. Slip is paid through September. He is asking $5650 and states that the price is firm. The pictures are from 4 years ago when he bought it. The list of included goodies is below the pictures. Joe says the hull could use a waxing. You can read what I had to say about the Ranger 28 in one of my previous posts here.
