Factory Tour - Our R-25SC

[spierp]

we are incredibly excited to receive our R-25SC in March and thought we would share a few pictures from our visit to the factory last week. Almost an embarrassment of riches, we feel very fortunate and can't wait to get on the water. 😀

Congrats! You picked a fine boat, great size too. 😉

The photos were great. Gave me a chance to see many hidden areas of the boat in the light of day.

My best for many, many happy hours over the rainbow.

Congrats on your new boat. Thanks for the great photos to help out with what's hidden under the cabin and deck. You will love cruising in it.

Thanks everyone! Since there is interest in some of the more hidden areas I posted the complete set of full resolution images which may provide a little more detail:

Outstanding. We remember seeing our boats being built, and the excitement we felt watching our boat becoming a reality. Enjoy every minute, and let us know when she splashes. See you on the water.

Cheers

Great pictures. We're just a few weeks ahead of you. We took delivery last Friday.

See you out there.

Great pictures! Enjoy the easy access to all the components now. :lol:

This is a REALLY good point. As I am looking at putting in a holding tank and battery monitor this spring, I wish I had a wire available that I could use to pull the new connections to the helm. If you have the chance, I would just put one in on the port and and one on the starboard side. You may want them some day. (Or am I an idiot and there are pull wires somewhere on my 27?).

And you guys are going to have soooo much fun.

Welcome Aboard! Nice and informative pictures. I remember when I had a black beard - before the rough water :mrgreen:

First, let me say welcome aboard the tug team. You made a good choice.
The factory is famous among owners for the outstanding level of support after the sale.

The one area I would point to that would benefit from improvement to is the lack of hatches to access the hidden areas between the deck/liner and the hull.
And the absence of a chase on each side for pulling wires, etc. after the build. I would urge that you ask the factory to install a chase before putting the top on the hull.

cheers,

Peter and Kerianne, congratulations on the new Tug and the new baby boy. Having a young daughter (7 years old now), I can attest that the 25SC is a great family boat. You will have many years of fun. Welcome!

A very big congratulations to you! You will LOVE your new boat and hopefully enjoy many days/hours/weeks cruising on her. We have been in the Ranger family since 2007 with two boats and have thoroughly enjoyed them.

Happy cruising to you!
