Sea Ranger MMS 55 first look: This British-built explorer is a true trawler yacht
- Top stories
Using the term trawler yacht to describe the latest generation of luxury navetta-style GRP liveaboards can feel a bit jarring.
So the new Sea Ranger MMS 55 provides the perfect antidote for serious cruisers. A trawler yacht in the true sense of the word, it borrows not just its looks and hull shape from a genuine North Sea trawler but also its bulletproof build quality and heavy-weather seakeeping.
Built at a commercial shipyard in Hull from 7mm thick plate steel and weighing a mighty 60 tonnes, it has the kind of offshore integrity which most GRP craft can only dream of.
Twin 180hp heavy duty cycle John Deere diesels designed to run for 5,000 hours a year and a Category A-rated hull with a towering bow and decks littered with scuppers, should allow it to push through seas which would send most craft running for home. And thanks to a fuel capacity of 6,400 litres it will keep on plodding at 8 knots for over 1,500nm.

Deep bilge keels combined with fin stabilisers keep roll under control, while bow and stern thrusters help with low speed manoeuvring.
In true trawler style a relatively compact main deck saloon leads to a raised wheelhouse with side doors to port and starboard.
The stainless steel galley and dinette are below decks with a water-tight door giving access to the three cabins; a double owner’s cabin and two guest cabins with traditional bunks and a shared bathroom.
The master double is to port with its own ensuite bathroom
The large engineroom has been fitted out to full commercial spec with twin 21kW generators and a fresh water maker serving twin 500 litre tanks.
One thousand litres of grey and 500 litres of black water capacity further enhance its offshore cruising capability. A six-person Zodiac with 15hp outboard is housed on the foredeck next to a launch crane and liferaft.
The MMS 55 is the brainchild of company owner Rob Langton, who has long dreamt of building a leisure boat with the cruising legs and robust build of the yard’s famously sturdy commercial craft.

New Sea Ranger MMS 55: A Bulletproof Cruiser
Spoiler alert: Keep reading only if you’re interested in bulletproof expedition-type cruising boats made to tackle rough sea conditions anywhere in the world.
The new Sea Ranger MMS 55, made by a commercial yard in northern England, isn’t meant to stay at the dock. I don’t know how many people it can hold for cocktails or a sunset cruise around the harbor.
The Sea Ranger has a sturdy steel-plate hull; it weighs almost 60 tons. It comes with the looks and the performance of a North Sea trawler, with a high bow and decks lined with scuppers.
Powered by twin 180-hp John Deere diesels, the Sea Ranger MMS 55 has a range of 1,500 nm at 8 knots. Top speed: 10 knots.
The new trawler carries a Category A offshore rating, so it should handle punishing sea conditions. It has a deep bilge keel and fin stabilizers to control roll, and bow and stern thrusters to make low-speed maneuvering easy.
The salon on the main deck opens up to the pilothouse, with doors leading to the port and starboard side decks. The galley and dinette are below, with three cabins – a double for the master and two guest cabins with bunk beds. There’s one head and shower.
The foredeck carries a six-person Zodiac with a 15-hp outboard for exploring, plus a crane for launching and a liferaft for the worst-case scenario.
The boat was made by Rob Langton, the managing director of the MMS shipyard on the Humber. It also comes in a workboat version.

“Lone Ranger” is an incredibly low maintenance trawler that stands out with its stainless steel railings and sunbrella coverings for windows and doors. The Europa styling and high gunwales not only add to its aesthetic appeal but also provide a sense of safety when navigating to the foredeck. Alongside these features, the vessel’s deep keel, longitudinal I-beam, and thick fibreglass layup ensure a smooth and comfortable cruising experience. The newly installed fibreglass decks in 2012 by Blackline Marine not only eliminate worries about teak decks but also contribute to the overall ease of upkeep that “Lone Ranger” offers.
Her meticulous owners have invested significantly in upgrades over the past 11 years, resulting in a vessel that exudes a brand new feeling. Both the hull and house have undergone professional repainting using a high quality 2-part Alexseal paint system. Due to a change of plans, completion of the flybridge has been postponed, although it has been prepped and is ready for painting (Alexseal paint from the same lot number as the hull and bridge provided with vessel as well as brushes, rollers, and tape – additional pictures available on request ).
Access to the flybridge can be found either through a vertical ladder in the aft cockpit or via a convenient stairway from the pilothouse. Enjoy al fresco dining on the large aft flybridge deck or gather everyone around the helm area, where generously appointed recessed seating provides a comfortable space for multiple people. A sunbrella bimini top is included (not pictured), as well as a flybridge cover for protection when not in use.
The salon welcomes you with a delightful ambiance, characterized by its light, cozy, and comfortable atmosphere. Every detail of the interior has been enhanced and cared for, from the beautifully refinished teak and holly sole to the bulkheads and carpeting. The soft furnishings have also received updates, ensuring a calm, and inviting space.
The gourmet galley, equipped with all the comforts of home, boasts a burl wood accent wall. The countertop in the galley is customizable and can be conveniently removed from the vessel, creating extra space in the salon area as needed. Ample stowage is found aboard, especially by means of the additional sideboard/bar area with sink.
Moving up two steps into the raised pilothouse, you’ll immediately notice the natural light and fantastic sightliness of the foredeck and surrounding water. The convenience of two doors with opening windows allows easy access to the side decks, while a staircase leads to the flybridge above. To port, a comfortable and deep settee with new upholstery and foam insert, is accompanied by a mosaic table offering a pleasant seating area. There is also a versatile “ships library” aft that can be converted into a pilot berth if needed. The helm has comprehensive engine instrumentation and navigation equipment.
Moving down into the sleeping quarters of the vessel, a hallway grants access to three rooms of accommodation. To starboard, the guest head features an electric toilet and large vanity, while the VIP guest stateroom, located forward, offers a hanging locker and a vanity table with offset double berth. On the port side you’ll find a guest stateroom with split bunks and night stand with stowage.
Moving aft, the master stateroom awaits, boasting ample storage and a queen-sized walk-around island berth and hull port lights. It is accompanied by a private head, complete with separate shower and electric toilet with large vanity.
A note regarding the VIP stateroom : this space has been sanded and prepared for varnish (varnish and required equipment provided with vessel). The headliner has been temporarily removed to facilitate this process and is awaiting the new owner’s choice of fabric covering. Additional pictures can be provided upon request.
