Ranger Tug Rendezvous
The following views are my personal opinion.
My wife and I have attended four Rendezvous. Jim Favors and his wife Lisa have arranged all four and did an excellent job. Ranger Tugs are lucky to have them onboard.
Rendezvous are always a goodtime. They are very educational and the ranger techs, the plant sends has always been top notch. The guest speakers are always good as well.
Ranger / Fluid Motion is smart and optimize well. The Rendezvous is a social event that attracts many potential customers. The cost of advertising is high, and putting in some extra money for the Rendezvous is money well spent by the company. Many potential buyers stop by to speak with Ranger owners and often times are invited to look at the Ranger interior by most owners.
The Ranger Tug owners at the Rendezvous are like unpaid salesman. That is where the value of the Rendezvous is.
I do not think future Rendezvous will be the happy party they once were, as unhappy owners continue to grow in numbers.
