Ranger Vessel Finds New Jersey Craft For Plum Island Trips
The Hudsons who run a charter and party boat at Plum Island Point sought a larger vessel along the Atlantic coast and found a 61 foot craft in New Jersey. The Ranger features twin screws with separate engines and a top speed of 12 knots. Skipper Paul York says it handles well in open sea conditions as they plan a future custom boat incorporating safety, maneuverability, and greater passenger comfort. The author also notes recent fishing trips for mackerel and haddock, including use of a Norwegian Jig and a rambling trip along the Merrimac jetty for stripers and flounder in variable weather.
