I'm a big fan of Ranger Tugs. My wife and I fell in love with the R29 at the 2010 show. The boat has all kinds of clever design features that make it unique. Coincidentally, I bought my current boat (2000 Regal 2550 LSC) solely do to its unique and clever design features; imagine my surprise to discover my current boat and the Ranger Tug R29 were both designed by the same person...

The new Ranger Tug 31 is really impressive. It's a flybridge equipped, live-aboard, "fast trawler" that is also trailerable (with some caveats). Imagine having a boat that's (just) big enough for a couple to comfortably live aboard AND being able to hook it to a diesel pickup truck and tow it around the country. That's quite an accomplishment.
