Its supposed to ship this week sometime.
That's purdy...........
Nice looking rig. Cool to see the build pics too the bare aluminum is neat looking. Looking foreard to seeing it on a tandem trailer tough to picture it. BTW you forgot to block out the merc logo in the 4th pic in the upper right corner on that cowl.

Received an update from Ranger and the tandem axle has passed some final engineering tests since it is the 1st to hit the market. Looks like there are 5 more tandem orders with mine. Next week boys
Curious as to what those test consisted of...I would have thought any test would have been conducted prior to making it an option/purchase. Look forward to seeing the final product and hope that one of those 5 other orders is mine. Thanks for the update!
Test could of been nothing more then seeing if the boat, on the trailer. Actually has the weight on each axle even. Essentially balancing. Moving the winchstand back and forth to get the balance right.
Each boat package is different. With different size motors, and different size jackplates that sat the motor back more.
Seen it a lot in past years, that some dealers will sit a boat on a trailer. The way it came from the factory. And not account for opinions made to the package.
So everyone getting a tandem trailer, should go straight to a scale. And see what the numbers are.
You dont want one axle heating up over the other.
And pulling the trailer level is much more important then a single axle.
