Is This Our Boat? 2023 Ranger Tug R-27 with @JonLMcNair Big Lagoon SP Trip Part 2 Pensacola FL 

Definitely a blessing to be able to. Trying our best not to take it for granted. Thanks for watching. 🙏🏾

"my people" well... that's about as racist as you can get. Why wouldn't you be happy to see any American enjoy life like that. I know I can't, but why would you say "my people". We are all in this together, we all bleed red, we all have different lives, some poor, some rich. I find your comment extremely racist, didn't your parents bring you up better than that? You're hate runs deep, I pity you.

Same!!❤ Working on it myself and am a couple of years away from getting my own❤

@@crystalyj30 You’ll get there and when you do enjoy it to the fullest. Thanks for watching. 🙌🏾🙏🏾

It had lots of appeal but you’re right they are not giving them away. It was almost double the cost of the boat we ended up buying. ☺️ Thanks for watching.

😃 Were you the lucky gentleman who got to take it out on a cruise? If so, sorry we held you up that day!!! 😊 Thanks for checking out the video and for the kind words.

So cool. We know someday our BIG dream is to eventually get a yacht that will cross “the pond” 😬but right now we’re putting the training wheels on and getting some cruising hours under our belt. Thanks for tuning in. 😁

@@MySUPRunnethOver yes!!!

It has been a tough decision. I am not the best fisher but I will show you what I know. 😆

Yes, we’re trying to make the best decision based on how we know we’re going to use it and our budget 😊 so we’re being very patient and as practical as a boat purchase can be 😏

Oh yes! As soon as I step on these boats, I immediately start to think about the memories to be made. Thanks again for watching.

It had lots of features for sure. So happy you enjoyed. 😊 Really appreciate you checking it out.

Sounds nice. Ranger Tugs may be a bit much for us right now and I am not completely sold on them. We’ll check out Cutwater boats. Thanks for the suggestion and for checking out the video.

Many thanks! Glad you enjoyed it 🙌🏾

We have definitely taken our outdoor adventures to a new level and loving it all. Thanks for watching.

😁 They were right on time on that day! Thanks for watching! 🙏🏾

We realized even the 27 was not where we wanted to be budget wise but there were other things that sent us in a different direction also. Good luck to you on your hunt.

We have been talking about it for a long time and within the few years have gotten very serious about moving forward. This one will likely not be our selection. Thanks for stopping in MsK7S. Always enjoy the chats.

@@MySUPRunnethOver Wow, you will be able to enjoy from land and sea. This is game changer, Mrs. Mysuprunnethover. Look forward to it. I like you all shopping around

We are shopping no more! We finally found the boat that’s right for us. and yes we will continue land traveling with now more water travels included. 😁

It was definitely a nice one. We went another way with the Jeanneau NC 795 Series 2 that was more in line with our lifestyle and budget 😊 Thanks for watching!

@@MySUPRunnethOverwould love to see a video on the 795, im currently doing my own research on finding a family boat for us. Good luck! Godbless!!

@@Hamptondan1515 Feel free to pop over to my channel. There are at least 3 or 4 I have posted. Happy Hunting and thanks for watching.

I guess it’s really all in how you want to use it. Coming from a RVing lifestyle, we don’t shy away tight spaces. 😁

We’re not there yet but getting pretty darn close to narrowing down exactly what we want and hopefully finding it out there on the market. Thanks for watching.

Thankful for your continued viewing! Yes it had a lot going for it but left a lot to be desired for me as well regarding safety. No, we will continue to RV. Let us tell it, it is the best way to see the country by land so we’ll always be RVers. We’re just looking for other ways to spend time outdoors, on the water with the fam and a bit more protection from the elements than our Gheenoe ☺️(on @jonlmcnair channel) We love that Gheenoe and will keep it for when we want days like those but we want a different boating experience with the family.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I brought a new boat last year this time. A 2022 Mako Pro Skiff 15. I'm an inshore fisherman now that I'm getting older. Its a nice little boat to get back up in the creeks.

@@mrearloutdoors Cool. Yes these tiny boats can go places a lot of boats wouldn’t dare.

We do like Cats and agree the space is amazing but we are interested in something that is trailerable so we can tow it and put in almost anywhere.

Good luck finding a boat slip at a marina

@@Jeff-kw8jjWhen not in use, we keep the boat we decided on at home on the trailer. That’s the beauty of a trailerable boat and a neighborhood with no crazy HOA rules 😅 Thanks for checking out the video.

There are fold away bench seats in the cockpit area for some outdoor living. It’s the style of the boat’s interior and the walk around to the bow that has me like 🙅🏾‍♀️

@@MySUPRunnethOver well y'all will find the right boat eventually

No we didn’t cover warranties and now that you mention it, we never really saw much of the below deck hardware and inner working parts of the boat… possibly because it was a client’s boat so we were being respectful but he didn’t mention any of that. Thanks for checking out the video.

The cabin living space… we see an easy transition from our RVing lifestyle to boating with this style of boat. Thanks for checking out the channel.

@@MySUPRunnethOver I’m subscribed now. Will be following y’all as you live my dream 😉. I’m taking a sailing class this weekend and want to eventually live on the water…hopefully, within the next few years.

@@jimherr152 Thanks so much for floating with us!!! Yes definitely get the preliminary tasks out of the way. Enjoy the experience and happy sailing when that time comes.

We have considered it but both of us are really not wanting to literally learn the ropes. I do like the idea of sailing though. Thanks for checking out the video.

Sailing is work.

Yeah they packed it in. No space wasted for sure but some interior space concessions could have been given up to allow more space to walk around the outside boat. That just bothers me a bit. 😬 Still considering it though. ☺️

@@MySUPRunnethOver It's a safety thing as well, but I'm guessing if you're anchoring, you're in a protected spot so walking around the outside shouldn't be a problem.

@@robertp.7090 This is true. We shall see. 😊

Thank you for this really nice video as I enjoyed watching you and your family having some vacation fun. As an aside, I own a 2021 Ranger Tug R-31 Command Bridge that I bought new. I love the tug and have owned several boats before I bought my tug. With regard to some of your comments and concerns, all Ranger Tugs are designed to look like a traditional tug boat. If you want a sporty modern look, search elsewhere and perhaps consider an express cruiser. Ranger Tug's use of space both inside and out, is an industry benchmark. They offer more usable space than any other boat in their size class. As far as your concern for getting to the bow of the boat, you will be hard pressed to find a cabin cruiser in this size range that has walk around decks. If they did that on small cabin cruisers there would be barely any interior space. Besides, there is no reason to be venturing to the bow when under way. If the teak interior is a concern for you, understand that every year or two all you need to do is to wipe down the teak with a rag laden with teak oil. Teak is a premium wood and is quite rare in a boat of this size. Personally I love it as I feel it gives the interior a rich, warm, and cozy feeling as compared to an interior that is all fiberglass. Finally, the factory support you get from a Ranger Tug is legendary. You can literally call the factory and speak to someone to ask a question or if you have a problem. ALL boats are compromises. Shop carefully, do your research, and select the vessel that is right for you and your family! Best of luck in your search! @@MySUPRunnethOver

@@happychildhood591 Thanks for checking out the video. We did give the Ranger Tug a very strong consideration 😊 but decided to go with the Jeanneau NC 795 S2 that fits our needs. It is definitely personal preference in the boating industry and with so many to brands and styles to choose from and options it was hard to decide but we are in love with the choice we made. Happy Boating and thanks again for watching.

It was a classy boat with all the bells and whistles and that two-feet and four-feet-itis is real. More space is never a bad thing, we ust wanted to keep it within our budget and towing range. Thanks for checking out the video 🙏🏾

I hear ya. A selling feature we were looking for is a length that was trailerable. If we could keep one in the water, I’d love a power Catamaran. Those are like sturdy floating apartments and so spacious. Since we keep our boat at home and want to tow it wherever, we went smaller. Thanks for watching 😊

@MySUPRunnethOver I think you can get a 35' small trawler that's trailerable, but if yall are looking you'll find what is right for you. I can't wait to find out here.

We decided to go in a different direction. We have a Jeanneau NC 795 S2. Check it out on the channel 🙏🏾

It definitely came with a whole lot of sticker shock. We went a different direction that worked better for us, including the price.
