Hey, I am new to the board here. Nice Fleet Ranger !!! And very low number 45 . Mine was number 12 and have seen numbers as high as in the 350 range.I have posted vintage photos of boat shows where theses boats were sold in the fifties. I borrowed the photos from the son of the salesman back in the day. You may be interested in seeing them on the Feathercraft.net site in the miscellaneous top bar under FC in boat shows.
I am very interested in these boats as I live in Fort Erie where they were made for a brief time. I found another Ranger the other day way back beside a garage in the boonies. I hope to go see if it is for sale next week. Enjoy your boat, they are a ton of fun. I would like to see it sometime if you are close to Fort Erie.
Bill
