I have been organizing a Rendezvous in the Northeast now for about 4 years now. The factory and some of the local dealers cooperate and participate. It fell by the wayside this year because my wife and I were in the Pacific Northwest. Having now cruised the Pacific Northwest I can tell you a few things. A) Ranger probably has about 30 percent of the market in the PNW. B) All owners in the PNW are relatively close to one another and traveling to a rendezvous location is easy for many many boats and one rendezvous can be reached by all.
The Rendezvous I have conducted in the Northeast usually attracts about 20 boats. It is a lot of work to organize a Rendezvous. This past summer it went by the wayside because I wasn't around. There was an attempt to get one going last minute, but it fell apart. Primarily it was the last minute thing that was difficult.
Geographically the east coast is huge as compared to the PNW. Ranger would have to put a ton of work together to hold various rendezvous in multiple locations. My opinion is that the dealers on the east coast would need to coordinate and organize their own at different times to cater to a particular geographic area.
I see you gents are from Brooklyn, NY and MA. I am in the middle of planning and organizing the 2017 Southwest Florida Rendezvous right now, but shortly there after I will be getting the Northeast one in motion. I have no location or date set, but it tends to be located somewhere between you two, so stay tuned.
