The Topaz Ranger is an excellent all-around boat; it is simple enough for virtual novices, has decent capacity, and makes a great family cottage boat.
The Ranger has a deep and spacious cockpit that can comfortably carry one to four crew. The cockpit has additional seating, with two seats positioned at the front of the cockpit and a fibreglass thwart in the centre, together with seating on the side of the boat. The Ranger also has a Gnav System on the boom to optimize the cockpit space further. The boom is the right height to give good clearance for junior crew.
The Topper Ranger is an ideal family boat suitable for teaching and rental fleets. Thanks to optional additions such as a gennaker and trapeze, it is perfect for cottage use and a sporty sailor.
HULL DESIGN
The hull shape is elegant and rugged; of course, the best materials are used, as you are used to from Topper.
TRILAM construction, unique to the Topaz range, gives an unrivalled strength-to-weight ratio and excellent uniformity, buoyancy, stiffness and durability. Additional built-in buoyancy, a high-free board and a flared gunnel deliver pedigree performance and a drier sail.
The lightweight pivoting epoxy centreboard and rudder make for easy, family-friendly sailing. The lightweight rig with a pivoting mast foot lets you raise and lower the mast single-handedly.
