      Haven't been following sales here, but at that $32K price, I'd guess it was likely one of the original '78-'87 models. We had an '87 Mk...

      ranger58sb replied to the thread Racor lookalikes.

      ranger58sb replied to the thread Hello from Mexico (currently).
      Hadn't noticed this before... welcome. FWIW, I'd think European canals means NOT a flybridge boat. Maybe something like Sylphide, a...
