“Sail, Row or Paddle, but no Motor no Support”

The 750 mile trek takes competitors up the inside passage through some of the most beautiful and stunning terrain in the world from Victoria BC to Ketchikan Alaska. Along the way they will face ragging currents through narrow channels, rain, fog, high winds, no winds and the open Pacific Ocean before reaching Ketchikan.

RANGER TUGS R-27

By Andy Adams

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!

Tugnuts.com is quite a unique resource. The online forum has quick links to a chat, info about cruises & gatherings, a channel to ask questions of the Ranger Tugs Factory, Ranger Tugs Technical Discussions, “How to” videos and more.

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.
