April Photo Contest

[Brian Dickhaut]

Last month’s photo contest was a ton of fun! It’s great to see what everyone has been up to. If this is the first time you’ve come across our Tugnuts photo contest, welcome aboard! We’re having a monthly photo contest in which the winner will receive TWO jackets, custom embroidered with the Ranger Tugs or Cutwater Boats logo.

For this month’s theme, we want to see your favorite Sunset (or sunrise) photos that you’ve captured of, on, or around your boat!

To enter the contest, all you need to do is send in a photo that fits this month’s theme: Sunsets/Sunrises.

Please send up to two photos, and a caption or comment to briandickhaut@rangertugs.com

I’ll upload the photos here to the thread as they come in!

We’ll be accepting entries until 5:00PM PST, April 25th 2019

Once the contest closes, we’ll hold a vote here at the factory and announce the winner in this thread!

A special thanks to John and Carol, for sending this photo of them, sporting the jackets they won in our December photo contest!

Enjoy"
- John on Wanderer

From Curt and Tracy J.

"Sunset at Horsehead Bay, Gig Harbor, Washington. Our friends held their daughter’s wedding at their home in front of the beach. We came to the wedding by boat. Caught this view of our boat the Red Raven from their house just as the sun went down!"

From Bill and Marcia K.

"The sky was on fire as we ate dinner in the cockpit of our 2012 Ranger Tug R27 at anchor on the Ohio River at Mile Marker 583, 20 miles upstream from Louisville, Ky. We keep our tug 10 minutes from our home in Goshen, Ky at Tartan’s Landing Marina, Ohio River MM 587. On nice evenings, we sometimes take a short cruise and take or make dinner on the tug and eat while enjoying the weather and water view."

From Dale and Karin,

"See attached photo taken by my wife Karin from the cockpit of TANGENT, our 2014 R31S, as we turned to enter the canal where we dock TANGENT at our condo near Fort Myers Beach, Florida. Most of the sunsets around here are gorgeous."

I'm amazed by everyone's photos!! It was a fun weekend at our Points North Seminar, and I'm really glad to see how many photos came in since we've announced the contest.


This one's from Sonny M.

"Sunset in St. Claire, Michigan."

From Laura F.

"Magical sunrise at Sucia Island"

 

[Brian Dickhaut]

From David D.

"Taken on our trip this past week to Suica. Photo is looking west at sunrise. I had my 'office' set up on the bluff/picnic table where I could get cell service and get some work done. Used the photo to harass by best friend suggesting I had the better office views for the day."
