As always, a nice job on the video. Actually showing a launch/retrieval is a great introduction to those new to trailering. Eliminate the concern, create more new buyers - sure makes good sense. Kudos to Bruce and Ranger. Just another fine example of how Ranger relates and communicates with owners and prospective buyers.

Best wishes,
Jim B.
 
Thanks Jim. I don't have a truck or a trailer - we keep our R25 in the water. But John and Jeff have me convinced. Follow a clear-cut procedure, use the right equipment, and it's very straightforward.

I just had to get them to slow down so I could get the shots 😉


Cheers,

Bruce
 
As usual, Ranger Tugs and a TUGNUTS member do a great job!

One suggestion: add a comment about the slope of ramp determining the distance the trailer needs to go into the water.
