Building Kismet — Light at the End of the Tunnel

As I write this blog, our dream of becoming owners of a Ranger Tugs R27 is only weeks away. The transition from being liveaboards for five years to joining the trailerable trawler world has taken 1.5 years so we’re very anxious and excited to be getting back on the water. As you can see from the photos, our new boat’s hull is fire engine red, a mighty fine-looking color I might add, one Lisa’s wanted for a long time.

We’ll begin our road trip west to take delivery of Kismet in late August, in Kent, Washington. We’re looking forward to writing about our new boating adventures on this blog once we take possession of our shiny new R27 however in the meantime we’ll post a few construction photos.
