You could go camping with it too and use it for dual purpose. If the campground has a boat launch, launch it, sleep and/or cruise.

good except for the detraction of the music

Wondering about that planing hull hitting wakes and waves. Would not buy a supposed trawler that pounds.

[@seikibrian8641]

If you're managing your speed to take the wave characteristics into account it won't pound, it will cut through the waves or ride over them.

By the way, although Ranger Tugs are nicknamed "trailerable trawlers" they aren't really trawlers in the usual sense. People of my generation would more likely consider them to be "cabin cruisers."

@@seikibrian8641 I would call them Pilot House.

[@seikibrian8641]

@@ronaldsimmons8346 That would not be accurate, as what looks like a pilot house from the outside is actually open to, and on the same level as, the saloon/galley.

I guess we gotta guess the price, in 2022 dollars I'd say $375,000. Idk.

[@nossasenhoradoo871]

Yes, great! Shame about the music, though! Was it necessary? Isn't the boat enough? Why not have bare-breasted cheerleaders as well?

All the "berths" are too small...the fore berths are 66" inches port and 63" stbd. , the dinette birth leaves your feet seticking out...stupid.
