Ahoy folks and happy Saturday -
New listing in New Bern, NC this is a one-of-a-kind cruiser
TERULOVE - 2022 Ranger Tugs R-43 Command Bridge is strong and swift, with less than 300 hours on the engines. She has the world's first Avikus LIDAR-based AI smart navigation/docking system.
A system of sensors and cameras will keep this boat right in the middle of the ICW or in the channels on the Great Loop. With a simple touch on the giant chartplotter, she will dock or undock herself hands-free. Joystick controls for the twin 450hp Volvo IPS pods make it easy to hover in place waiting for locks/bridges, even in a ripping current. Think of the self-parking, self driving cars. This system was developed by Hyundai Marine for commercial shipping/cruise ship applications. TERULOVE is the first pleasure craft with AVIKUS onboard. This is one very cool boat.
Former Nordic Tug 37 owner, he is now a big Ranger Tugs fan. One of his favorite things about TERULOVE is the 29kt top speed, she roars across the sounds, or gets out of the way of storms.
Motorized flatscreen TV, and motorized salon table and settees raise at the push of a button to reveal a pantry/laundry room second fridge and a deep freezer, plus a separate washer/dryer underneath. Excellent design and clever use of space.
Command Bridge gives a ton of seating and entertaining above, and the cockpit bench seats pivot to make a beautiful waterfront dining area. Joystick control at the cockpit docking station as well.
