Beautiful Canada

Ranger Tug 31S in front of Chrome Island, BC

I am new to boating. Bought a 2019 Ranger Tug in April followed by taking a short boating course and headed out. Spent from late May to early August in the Canadian Pacific north.
Will be shipping the boat (only ten foot beam, hence able to trailer) to Tennessee next month to start the Great Loop.

I hope you like this pic of beautiful Canada.

OK Photo of the Week photographers – it’s time to get serious. Fall begins in 10 days, so we need to get your Photos of the Week in. You pick it, then shoot it. Anything in or around boats. Your boat!

Send your shots to CYOnBoard@kerrwil.com and put POTW in the heading. Please tell us who is in the shot, where it was taken and a bit about you. Thanks a bunch.

Ranger Tugs have been around since 1958 and they have developed a great formula: one boat, one price. Almost everything is included, and there is literally a fan club of owners who share stories, information and who set up events and rendezvous with other Ranger Tugs owners. www.Tugnuts.com is a community hub for owners of Ranger Tugs, Cutwater Boats and Solara Boats, all made by Fluid Motion!

“Standby tack,” Canadian sailor Katy Campbell orders. The crew scrambles over the sheet lines and braces on the deck.

I wait until the bow turns into the wind and the headsail snaps over, then crawl over the cabin top of Panacea X to the now windward side. The trim team smoothly sheets on the headsail and a competitor vessel shoots past our stern, feet away, as our Solana 45 beats eastward along Antigua’s south coast.
