Purchased and closed in Oct/Nov 2024, picked up and towed to our home marina this May 2025. Loving our 2016 C28!Photo 3.jpg
 
Taken just after arrival at Gorge Harbor Marina in late August of 2019. 2009 RT-25 Classic. First crossing of Strait of Georgia for us and we did it solo. You can see the old restaurant (now gone) on the hill in the upper left.

"Cruisin' in a Ranger Tug feels like this!"

2017 R23 Ranger Tug trailered 600 miles from Ohio to Lake Champlain in New York and Vermont with my wife and 2 young boys for our first weeklong "boat-cation" staying on the boat each night. We had a great trip! Picture of my crew at the docks in Burlington, VT R23_First_Mates.jpg
