We’re headed to the local tugboat rendezvous

If you know anything about Ranger tugs, you know about their exceptional follow up from the factory. There is an ardent following of people who own the boats and their relationship with Ranger tugs. Fluid motion, the company that makes ranger tugs, is one of the few companies who are committed to their boat owners long after the sale of the boat. There is an entire forum at Tignuts.com run by the factory where Ranger Tug Marblehead modifications or other issues with the boat. While the factory runs the forum, it is by no means censored. One of the nice things about it is people post their complaints as well as their issues with the boats. The factory is often very quick to respond and there is a section entitled ask the factory. People post questions about their boats and specific issues which are often answered within minutes by another fellow Ranger tug owner. It’s an incredible resource and I’ve been able to connect with a number of owners not only of Ranger Tug 21 but also also other Ranger boats.

Each year the Ranger Tug Marblehead ranger tug rendezvous up in Washington state. They gather there with over 100 ranger tug owners for a three day weekend during which the factory has seminars, Social events and other opportunities for owners to get together.

This year a Ranger on the East Coast has organized an event to be held in Essex Connecticut. If you’ve watched any of my videos, you know, this is one of my favorite places to vote and this weekend we’re headed there to meet up with some other Ranger Tug owners To get together and connect. We are only going for Saturday night but representatives from the factory as well as some of the engine manufacturers will be there to hold seminars. It looks like it’s gonna be a great weekend. We’re gonna shoot a video so stay tuned.
