The R-31 shares the beloved qualities of her smaller sisterships while adding features purpose-built for extended cruising. She's the first Ranger Tug to feature a flybridge with electronic controls at both the upper and lower helm stations — and that flybridge retracts for trailering. The foredeck is equipped with seating and a height-adjustable table, the cockpit features wraparound seating with fold-out gunwale seats, and a starboard pilot house door provides easy bow access for line handling.

Below, the interior offers two private staterooms — a forward island berth with en suite head and shower, and a midship stateroom with double berth and day head. The familiar Ranger Tugs galley layout and lower helm station maximize every inch of interior space. Power comes from a Volvo D4 300hp engine delivering a 16-knot cruise speed, with bow and stern thrusters making single-handed docking straightforward.
