Are you a dealer? Not much in your profile! Why not introduce yourself to the rest of us.

tongue- in- cheek typo, too after seeing a R25 in Punta Gorda. A R29 must be a hulk!

That was very kind of Marc to allow us to use his images on our site. I hope to put up more pictures of the boat and a video after I get back from the Miami Boat Show this weekend.

Now THERE'S an idea!!! We got 'em, one black, one Roberts Gray! Buy one and we'll let you have the other at dealer cost!!! Mr. Green

Ranger Tugs R-29 video

Interesting "Ensign" flying.... It would help to see video of the vessel underway at speed and to demo maneuverability. Still photos might give you a better idea of the actual inside. The constant motion and panning can be annoying.

Is the main electrical panel and air conditioning under those steps on each side of the cockpit?

We have video of the other Rangers at speed, but did not get the opportunity to shoot the 29 from a chase boat or a bridge as I did with the 25 and 21.

The folks from Ranger had some professionals make a video and virtual tour, and Jeff told me it will be ready in a month or so. Should look a lot better than my novice efforts!

I put some new pictures of the Ranger Tugs R-29 on our website.

The port side cockpit locker contains the batteries, the water heater, and the main switches and relays for the batteries. The starboard side one contains the generator. They're HUGE storage spaces.

Marc was kind enough to give us the tour of the 29 when we were at Wefings Tuesday. An impressive boat. If we get crazy enough to sell the house and go to a boat full time, we could live on this boat. It fits the bill for splitting time between the Keys and San Francisco Bay.
