I believe the Ranger is heading for its 5 year hull inspection. This would be the first/next step to determine its future, whether to rehab/modernize her or to replace her. Various studies have already been undertaken to investigate potential replacement vessels, either brand new or something reconfigured from an existing vessel.

Re: Spotted in Superior, WI
Thanks for the pic fonix. I had seen on FB she was headed for drydock in Superior and was going to ask if anyone there had spotted her.
Ed, I'm hoping they keep her--we're the same age and and I'm pretty sure she's been better cared for, than I've taken care of myself
. So if she's no longer fit to go ...

The V2 looks so small in that picture. It's an interesting perspective. It makes me realize that we've rented a houseboat on Dale Hollow that is bigger than her.
