$400,000+ Ranger Tug R-31 CB Pocket Motor Yacht Tour Perfect Cruising Trawler for the Great Loop

[@BendiFaguette]

As a single guy with a small dog this is such a delightful tug and the trailerability only makes it more attractive!

[@jimm3756]

A perfect boat for cruising around Chesapeake Bay. Do a little fishing and crabbing. This boat is it.

[@winky32174]

Normally, I wouldn't even look at a boat this small. However, despite its size, it has a lot of features that make it 'livable'. Not that I'd use it for live-aboard, it would be perfect for weekends in tight passages, like some of the waterways in Florida. Being trailerable certainly is a plus for that!

[@NautiStyles]

glad you found it interesting!

[@danielplainview4778]

Having been on board I can very confidently say for anymore then a weekend even with just a couple this boat is tiny inside although innovative… the whole “you can trailer it!!” Gimmick has kept the beam incredibly narrow

[@SeaJay_Oceans]

@@NautiStyles Is it a real powerful tug boat ? More of a luxuary working boat ? Let's go push around some oil tankers ! :-D Earn money all week by pushing around some heavily loaded bardges too...

[@socialseahawksfan9325]

Pocket yachts are gimmicky, too small and dangerous for rough conditions.

[@WaspMedia3D]

@@socialseahawksfan9325 Almost any boat is too dangerous for "rough conditions" ... depends on how rough and where you go. Nonsense snob comment ... this boat is quite popular and fills a fairly wide niche. Perfect for Island hopping in the pacific northwest.

[@EgilWar]

I used to own the 27' version and my son and I spend quite a few summers cruising around B.C. We have many good memories. The build quality of the Ranger Tug was mixed. They did an admirable job of maximizing space use. The seats are uncomfortable for long term use. There is no vent for the stove/oven and it could get a bit smokey in the cabin. We had the optional diesel heater and it did a great job of keeping us warm on some cool and damp nights. What we did discover, by experience, was that the heater used the same fuel tank as the engine. As the engine used electronic fuel flow to calculate fuel consumption and remaining fuel it would reduce available fuel reserve without telling us. We actually ran out of fuel on our way into Comox. Luckily we has a spare can of diesel. The inverter had to be replaced three times. The fuse for the front thruster was the same as for the windlass and would blow. Took them some time to figure that out. The radar dome assembly had to be replaced. The thrusters are good enough in relatively calm conditions. The Volvo engine control harness was not the correct one resulting in errors. They could not find a correct harness and ended up splicing cables to make it work. When you are on holidays you really don't want to spend time in the shop fixing things like this on a new boat. Seaworthiness? I caution anyone going into heavy seas. The bow is not friendly to oncoming waves resulting in very uncomfortable slamming into the waves. We had to slow down to sub 5 Kt speeds. The boat also rolls a lot. To the extent that the kitchen cupboard doors would fly open and spill the contents. Finally, after a service the technician forgot to tighten the oil cap resulting in quite a mess. Engine instrument warned us of low oil!

[@elcajondavid1]

Thanks for the info.

[@markedward5941]

Thanks for the advise , I did see a few video's on the hull thickness that were not encouraging . Have you seen a Helmsman 31 ? Iv'e been wondering about the Helmsman 31 . A bit wider , a bit more towards displacement on the spectrum of semi-displacement than the R31 ,still trailerable with the right permit and tow vehicle where I live . Seperate head and shower . It's a dated design by comparison but from afar it seems to be a bit more robust maybe .

[@EgilWar]

@@markedward5941 No idea about the Helmsman and I would not trust the reviews for an hones assessment.

Lol I could see this story happening in a movie, but god advice anyway.

[@happychildhood591]

Thank you for your well done video! I recently took delivery of my new Ranger R-31 CB and absolutely love her. Downsizing from a larger vessel is never easy but my Ranger R-31 provided all the amenities and than some that I was accustomed to. She is a quality build that is like a Swiss Army Knife with regard to the use of space and functionality. She is economical at displacement speeds but fast when she needs to be. A well thought out and durable boat that never fails to attract attention wherever I go..!

[@robc1952]

I hear many do the great loop, for those that don't know, when you look up all the canals, rivers, and such, the eastern part of the usa is a giant island, a great loop, many love just doing that,

[@NautiStyles]

thanks for sharing

[@Mandurath]

Depending on which routes you take, from what I have read the complete loop including side rivers is around 6k miles. 've done a few parts so far, someday will finish.

Hiya Vico, Nice little toy size tug. As you say it has its uses, just not for a disabled person. But again, great use of the room, good decor, well-planned galley. Perfect in its place. Thank you for showing it to us. Great video, but I prefer the asymmetrical hairdo V. Not the best dress for the weather, but you looked great, but then you always look great Dear Lady. Stay safe, Steve...

[@clifbradley]

That has to be the damn coolest 31' boat I've ever seen. And it sleeps 4 people! That's amazing.and you can do 720 miles at displacement speeds! That's almost enough to do the Great Loop and not have to stop but like 10 or 12 times for fuel.. But I'm sure you wouldn't cruise it at 7 knots the whole time. I think the Hardy, Great Banks, Fleming and Nordhavns are the most popular that do the Great Loop, probably a few others I know I'm forgetting for sure, but this is way less and just as capable.

[@NautiStyles]

Nice! so glad you liked it as well!

[@NautiStyles]

[@r.a.monigold9789]

It is a SMALL, legally trailerable boat with a very clever layout that adds a feeling of SPACE where none exists. At 75, I'm a decade long RV live aboard guy and I'm looking to return to the water - having spent over twenty years afloat. To me, this is a PERFECT single person live aboard - it's about multiple spaces rather than one cavernous salon, as variety is the spice of life. Thanks "you two" for yet another enjoyable and informative tour.

[@samwise4me903]

It really is impressive how much they packed into such a small boat. It would be perfect for where I live in the northeast of the US. There are plenty of islands within the cruising range of this yacht. I could even store it in the offseason in my yard! No yard fees!

[@scottbeharriell4358]

First I would like to say that I love your videos. I just thought I should clarify the statement that this boat is trailerable. The maximum legal width of a trailer on a road is 8.5 feet in USA and Canada. This is for hooking up and driving anywhere and anytime you want. This boat is trailerable but is considered a wide load and you have to buy a special permit every time you move it.

[@NautiStyles]

Thanks for the info! fair enough

[@garyc5483]

In Europe this could only be moved on a semi. Also @ 3 mtrs would be considered to be a wide load. Would need to be craned on & off @ each end. Still a nice boat though. Fair winds & regards from the UK

[@geoffreyhume-cook2498]

You two are just brilliant at this. From the repartee, to the acknowledgment of the weather changing mid-show! The realness of your comments about the romantic, and warm ‘feel’ of the ‘little’ 31’ tug; brings a smile to my face. And those out-takes…! Brilliant & chuckle-honest. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🌏

[@mikebarnes5528]

A 2500 truck won’t pull this boat safely. Love these tours. I watch one before bed and dream about escaping on the boat tour. LoL. Keep up the good work.

[@oldmanrock7542]

We had a boat that was 9 foot 4 wide. I bought 1 wide load permit and never did after that. Never got stopped.

[@Bentons_Place-DIY]

For this to be a modern style "tug", I appreciated the traditional nautical touches in the boat; namely the portholes and louvered wooden doors and trim. Call me an old fogey, but I love portholes and would love to see more of them in a boat like this.

[@anthonynicholas1165]

Swift trawlers are great boats and roomy for their size, another great tour albeit a tiny boat peeps.

[@stevenryle5709]

No washing machine so on the Great Loop you'd have to use laundromats in towns. Didn't see a water maker (just have to drink beer and wine, I guess) Looks like a very easy boat to maneuver in tight spaces like canal locks. If you dock in a marina that charges by the foot you're saving money. Easy to single hand probably.

[@Lon1001]

If it were mine I might replace that cockpit sink with a large tub and handwash any garments. Agree that a water maker would be very useful to make this a perfect package.

[@PreacherwithoutaPulpit]

Talk about an amazing little live aboard and with it's range there's no reason I can see you couldn't head out from Florida to spend some time in the Bahamas. What a truly spectacular little vessel that's well appointed and a proven hull design that if you were dumb enough to get caught in bad weather would get you safely through it. The reason I say dumb enough is not meant as an insult it's because with today's weather predictions and the ability to know what's coming there's no reason to get caught in it barring some sort of failure or other circumstance. The thing is she's also more than fast enough to outrun anything you failed to see coming, well almost anything. This would be a dream vessel for me and the fact you can trailer it means no haul out fees or storage fees if you have a property to take her to. Also on the comment about using an RV Garage seeing as how when folded down she's only 10'3" tall there'd be no issues with that and you can easily take her down most major highways/interstates as when folded her clearance is below that of a Tractor Trailer/Big Rig. Now to win the lottery or have some stocks actually pay off and away I'd go...

[@rebekahlow8375]

It's absolutely adorable! I really like the seat with table in the front of the yacht.The seats that open on each side of the cockpit are terrific. Love the solar panels! I love the interior!!!!!

The oversize road permit to trailer this craft can be quite an adventure in some states.

The fees are usually nominal and a CDL may or may not be required depending on tow vehicles weight with everything loaded up for an excursion. Be safe.

[@ArtVanAuggie]

19 feet at mile marker 300 give or take. There may be a more circuitous route to avoid the low bridge problems. You can't rush the trip and one and a half to two years would be the time budget, especially if you do the St. Lawrence route. I recommend the St. Lawrence as you get to visit Quebec (kinda France) and St. Pierre (actually France). The Northern parts of the loop freezes in Winter so careful planning is important.
