Jim and I had a mutual deal when we bought our Ranger Tug R29S, we would up-size from our six-year-old R27 (sold in 2017) and buy and keep a Ranger Tug R29S for two years. Before we decided to sell the R27, we had a decision to make – it was time to either sell her and try something else or keep her for the rest of our boating days. We both agreed it would be fun to try something new. It was one of the best decisions we’ve made together, as boaters.

The R29S is roomier than the R27, we were pleased to find it more stable too. Jim and I acknowledged the increased visibility right after we took possession. Any initial concerns about trailering a bigger boat were short-lived. We never hesitated to continue our trailering lifestyle in the USA and Canada with the bigger R29S.

Well, two years turned into three in the blink of an eye.

We had so much fun trailering the new Kismet R29S from the Pacific Northwest to Michigan, after taking delivery in Des Moines, WA, and subsequently trailering her home; we’ve trailered her from Michigan to Florida, twice; also to Canada’s historic canal system, the Trent Severn Waterway and the Rideau Canal in 2018 and Canada’s North Channel, in 2019; we spent this summer cruising in the San Juan Islands and Puget Sound since our original plan, of cruising to Alaska, could not happen because of COVID-19 border closures. Now, we have made the very hard decision to keep to our agreement and sell her while in the PNW.

We’ve had three exceptional years on this boat. No; we are not getting out of boating, just reevaluating and tweaking our boating lifestyle as we do every so often. We’ve enjoyed our R29S for three years and have taken excellent care of her.

Kismet is a LUXURY EDITION model in HERO RED and comes with a trailer and many extras. She is in LIKE NEW condition!
