Suggest you go to the "horse's mouth"...customer service guy, Andy Custis at the factory..Very open person. Email to andrewcustis@rangertug.com Tom .Ranger 25 BANJO #52

I would love to make it, especially with the new Ranger...but...that weekend, for 11 years, is the Rock Hall Fallfest, an event i founded and run every year...25 bands, 56 crafts, 25 food vendors, waterfront and land activity...6,000 people last year. I'd love to ask for a "weekend off" and...

Today i spent a good two hours just running the systems...heat systems, air, generator (noisy, but hey, it 's a small boat), and going over the engine learning where everything is. I write things down. I am trying to follow the break in rules for the first 50 hours... So far, all is...

Terry and Byrdman, Glad to hear you will be here early. Terry: dare i ask? Reds and Whites? and the "libation" for those who so desire? tom

Pat, Thanks for the update. And the 301/50 bridge is over the water...very beutifuly ride across....tends to back up at toll booths after 3pm and until about 7pm. My cell is 443 480 6056, home is 410 639 7079. tom ...terraplane

On my C Dory i kept my tools in a hard tool box..For the ranger i got a soft canvas tool bag..ACE Hardware...lots of pockets and because it is soft bodied, i hope to put it in the starboard deck hatch in the cockpit floor..it if slides a bit it shouldn't hurt anything. tom

On my C Dory 22 i carried only a West Marine mini dinghy...almost useless, but fine for what we did..after anchoring, just getting a short distance to shore...or puttering around in creeks and rivers... but it was really too small forthe two of us..kind of comical to see, i think. BUT...we...

PLease let me know , or let Anne Baxter know, if you are planning to arrive early to the gathering. We might be able to use some people on Friday at the launch ramp site (about a mile from Lankford Marina), and at my house (parking area of some rigs...already reserved). There are always last...

All good suggestions from Alma's Only....even those of us who live here, and don't own the books, would agree..nice plan, good routes...too many choices...heck, i've barely explored my own local rivers in all these years.. terraplane...

Well, pretty soon i'll start watching the long range forcast. Sometime on Saturday..maybe over coffee...those who might want to travel a bit after the gathering...leaving in late morning on Sunday perhaps...and going in a leisurely fashion out for anywhere from three to five days...should meet...

Tracy, If you are planning to hang around for a while, i thought some of us might travel around a bit...Maybe on Sunday afternoon to St. Michaels..great lighthouse..and you can tour it... There is a lot to see from the water...both rural and urban. We can make a plan. Be glad to see you. tom...

Hi Tracy, Gosh..there isso much. Are you guys boating up or driving? Let me know and i can "advise" on some good stuff to see. tom

I hate to call my service guy with this one: anyone who can tell me how to get the ranger 25 dining table down into the configuration of the bunk? (When it comes to mechanical things, i'm like a monkey with a pencil!)

Strongly advise bottom painting...mine came with that...done here in Rock Hall by the dealer, Gratitude Yachts. On another note: My R25, brand new, hull 52...sits in her slip. I wonder if all of us with these boats should have an easy way of communicating...not another site...i would NEVER want...

Pat and Fred, You simply have to come...no matter the conveyance... The spoons , this time, would be welcome on anything i play. It would even be ok if you sing! tom

Weather permitting...i am planning to join any who wish to take a cruise. I must be back at Lankford by Wednesday evening..there is a concert on Thursday to prepare for at The Mainstay. I would be happy to comp any C Dory/Ranger people at the concert..great jazz, really. Since i have now moved...

Thanks to all who have sent along congratulations. Today the service guy came to do a couple of very minor things...he was amused that this was the first boat i have owned with a marine head, a generator, and air conditioning...He asked what we did in those July 98 degree days in the past? I...

I wouldn't charge for a ride... BUT... a good friend of mine who takes lots of friends out fishing here on the Bay has put a plastic jar in a prominent spot in his cockpit..it is marked: "Marine Fuel Contribution Jar" tom

Same Ranger...they had it at Chesapeake show...and if someone had made a very firm bid, it would have been gone. Re: tours and rides...open house, certainly, and time permitted, a ride out on the Bay. terraplane

Gratitude Yacht Sales has a good rep for checking boats out well before the sale..and they are just a couple of miles away, so that is good. Tomorrow the head of their service dept is coming to the boat to go over things in detail with me..nuts and bolts. I'd appreciate any advice on things i...
