This is my dream boat! So I'll keep on dreaming!!!
Vessel has unique features and the man’s knowledgeable of his product
Take a drink every time he says whatnot, and try to walk and whatnot.
Nice boat and I really love all the what not's.
Since it's a boat wouldn't that be what knots? :)
Can I get this without the in room toilet? Not a fan of having one right next to the bed.
Awesome boat
Very impressive design: lots of innovative features. I would like to see more emphasis on larger refrigerator/freezer capacity for extended trips. That day head area, in my view, would be much more useful housing an additional refrigerator, a separate freezer, and more dry storage. You could make that a floor plan option. Day trippers might opt for the day head. Week long trippers would probably opt for the added refrigeration. Refrigeration thoughts aside, great walk-through and a very nice boat!
Point well taken..perhaps add engle 12v in that area,or two! They are portable;take them out when need be.
This is a 31 foot trailer-able boat....realize what it is and what it is not....31 foot..what the fuck do you expect? Its a beautiful design for what it is designed for.
There was a lot of deck space out back. You might be able to fit a nice small deep freeze, and keep the day head. There is probably a lot of dry storage that he didn't show like under the dinette seating. It would be nice to know capacities, and range, but I guess that is easy enough to look up. Nice boat, and nice walk through.
This is 4 years ago! Really, what’s new withe the 31? What’s changed, it would be nice to see an update and the
improvements.
Love it.
nice little boat
Iron American Dream on UA-cam.
I just love that extended beam logic. I mean that's stretching it.
Literally.
6:08 LOL Storage for a pair of socks!
Спасибо!!!
If you spend time looking at tugs or trawlers, this is an exceptionally thought out yacht that you can trailer out....what more could anyone want?
JoJo/Clem Kadilihopper - a taller wrap around bow rail - pretty nice rig
You can't trailer it
I want it in my driveway, is this asking too much?
@@BubbaBen01 "You can't trailer it"
Oh really? Then why are the mast, rails, and helm designed to fold down? And why does the factory offer an "Aluminum triple axle trailer, electric hydraulic brakes, spare tire and mount -- $15,600.00" as an option. And why has my brother trailered his R-29, the predecessor of the R-31? See: ua-cam.com/video/wB75gG3ugUU/v-deo.html
@@seikibrian8641 the 29 has an 8 ft beam. This 31 has a 10 ft beam. And while it is trailerable, you will need to familiarize yourself with oversized load laws in whatever state you are trailering in. In some states you may be able to get an "annual permit". In many states you will have to apply for a permit each trip. That is for any load you haul on public roads over 102 inches, or 8'6". If you leave it in the water all season and only trailer it home once and to the marina once, trip permits may not be an issue. It would only be 40 or so bucks a year, depending on the states oversized load fees. But a permit fee every trip would get old. And the fines for not having proper oversized load permits can run into the hundreds, if not thousands of bucks, depending on what state you got ticketed in. While this boat may technically be trailerable, it may not be practical for most people. One last point. In the video, it said the command bridge folded to 14ft. In many states, loads over 13'6" inches may require a flag car with a highpole running in front of the tall load to ensure it doesn't hit a bridge or other overhead obstruction. Other states, your permit will dictate your routing. Get caught off route, more huge fines.
Edit: I stand corrected by SuckiBrian. The 29, like his more successful, smarter, and likely more polite brother has has a 10ft beam. I don't see how that negates my points about potential issues with oversized loads. But Brian has to be right. So I now to his expertise. Lol
Why do they always put two massive sinks in these boats? Everything else is to scale, two burner stove small fridge etc
Can you put a winch of any sort on the mast?
Great boat. Are there fires in the back ground? 2 large smoke plumes in the back ground.
Jorge Miguel Port Alberni has a huge mill, probably what you saw.
Old video-wonder what a 6 yr old Ranger 31 fetches in this market...?🧐
225-250 with CB.
@@FINfinFINfinFINfin that’s an old video-forgot all about that...THANKS
1/4 million-plus?
Interested in the selling price?
I think i will prefer the 41. Where can I buy this brand boat in the usa?
Hello Jeffrey, If you email our sales manager Dave, he will get you in touch with our sales personnel in the USA. Thank you! His email address is dave@portboathouse.com.
Is it trailerable throughout Canda? Do you need a permit and/or a wide load sign?
With a 10-foot beam this boat is considered "over dimension" in all of Canada. (The limit is 8'5" nationwide.) The rules may vary in different provinces and territories, but in British Columbia you can tow a load up to 10'6" without an escort vehicle, but a permit is required.
Canada also has trailer requirements for oversize. No surge brakes and brakes on each axle. Also there may be height restrictions on some routes as I’m guessing this is 13-14’ on the trailer. You may need to take ferrys into consideration. You’ll need to book as a commercial load especially during the summer months returning from the island. The oversize rates are quite high.
@@sirlancelot3109 "I’m guessing this is 13-14’ on the trailer."
Good guess! It's listed as 13'4" on the trailer.
Great trick, seat makes a ten foot into a twelve foot beam huh? Riiiiiiiiggghhtttt lol
can it go to open sea? can i have non removable seats at the back?
anthony mow "can it go to open sea?"
Sure it can...but it probably won't come back. ;-)
hehe.......good one
Would I need a class A license to tow that boat? Just thinking because its over 10k lbs.
+rich r Class A not required unless the whole vehicle combination weighs more than 26000 lbs.
You don't need a Class A license, but since it has a 10-foot beam you do need an "Oversize Load" banner and, in some states, a trip permit.
You need a head examination.
@ 3:02 Imagine if underway someone is cooking and someone else comes in from outside, stumbles over door threshold. What a wonderful place to put a stove. Do Ranger boats come with top of the line first aid burn kits?.. But you could always put up a sign saying not to use door while cooking
Price?!!
I want
8ft 2in is the max with on roads over that need wide load permits
8'6" everywhere in the USA that I'm aware of. Some states even allow up to 6" more for "safety equipment" (presumably mirrors) and/or "RV appertances," whatever those might be.
8ft 2 in trailer and load 8ft6 for the mirrors on the tow vih. Drove a semi for a loving
Well, unless you stopped driving prior to 1976, you were wrong for much of that time. The Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), 23 CFR Part 658 sets the maximum vehicle width at 102.36 inches (2.6 meters) EXCLUDING MIRRORS. 102" = 8'6". See: ops.fhwa.dot.gov/freight/publications/size_regs_final_rpt/images/fig1.gif
It was 96 inches (8') prior to the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1976, then 102 inches, then "metricized" to 2.6 meters (102.36 inches).
Nice boat but the day head sitting basically right on top of the midships berth............perhaps you should have just put a shelf there or something.
+Motor Head It's handy for guests, so they can get to it from the cockpit without tracking through the boat. If you don't want it, though, they'll probably be happy to build you one without it.
Totally agree, nothing like sleeping next to a toilet at eye level. Another thing to maintain. Storage would be waaay more useful.
@@RockwoodJoe At least it is a fresh water toilet. It is somewhat of a luxury to have 2 heads on a 31 ft boat. For day cruising or weekend trips I would probably keep the day head. Plenty of fishing room on the back deck, and I like the docking helm stations for single or short handling. Only so much room on a 31 foot boat, but they seemed to create a pretty good floor plan while still keeping trailering as an option.
The what knots are not standard.
I wish I had money so I could buy this
Calling that a Tug is....... nevermind.
As you enter the cabin, you burn your hands on the stove. Clever
Anyone who's not smart enough to pay attention to where he's putting his hands has no business being on a boat.
Wow. 4 "whatnots".
Music yes,but voice can't be heard
I have no trouble hearing him clearly.
Get a life
NICE BOAT BAD SALESMAN
One simple payment of $1.5 million !!!! Lol
$324K
Crazy Kup "One simple payment of $1.5 million !!!!"
You're buying four of them? With all the options? Cool!
Outta here with that nonesense
STOP - SPITTING on the boat!!!
Only thing is, those folding seats- great way to lose wallet and other pocket contents! Nice boat otherwise.
Obviously to each his own, but I never have anything on me, when i'm on the boat. One of the reasons i'm on a boat is to feel free... My watch and my sunglasses, with both i dive in ;)
