I have posted some Tug pictures in my album "Applachicola" that was just approved.

They may be of some interest to the group.

walldog aka capt herb,

Really enjoyed your photos. When I first saw your trailer (and boat), I was confused; it looked exactly like my rig. I was pretty sure my Float On was the first one for the R-21EC and I couldn't figure out why you had it. Then I looked at your photo data and saw you were there in May. When I purchased my R-21 EC from Marc at the Altanta Boat Show in Jan., he had one of his other boats on an alum Float On. I made it a condition of sale that Marc would have them make me an alum trailer with the uprights.

My wife and I went down to Applachicola in late March, or early April to swap out trailers. I'd been using his trailer. We really like that area and have been there several times.

A note: Watch the front edges of the two front bunks and the front edge of the port bunk close to the sea water pickup.
I had damage in both of those areas launching and retrieving the boat. I cut the front edges of the two forward bunks at a 45 degree angle and re-covered them. Then I cut off about six inches of the port side bunk to clear that sea water fitting and beveled the edge 45 degrees and re-covered it.

I told Marc, but it may have been after you bought your tug. If you'd like photos of what I did, let me know.

Possibily, the damage was a result of the angle of my launch ramp.

Happy motoring and thanks,

Gene
