Another Ranger hits the water

Post by Bassbug »

The Ranger is done and tested on a 5-day trip to the BWCAW in May. I was most impressed in the way she handled loaded in wind and on quiet waters. Although not as much room as in a longer canoe, she did very well and we cruised at 3.5mph. I am very satisfied by the stability and predictability of the design. The 16' Prospector may be my next boat.
