    Incredible job of creating a cruising boat that is not exorbitantly expensive but is very seaworthy, has all the amenities one would need for enjoyable cruising, and is very attractive boot! Stunning work!

    You do very nice work, your modifications are well thought out and very professional-they look as though they were done by the plant at the time of build. Rosborough should consider adding your ideas to their boats.

    Beautiful boat and great updates, I hope the Rossi manufacturer is aware of this vid for future reference. If you ever decide to sell your boat, (I doubt you ever will) let me know, I would be very interested. Thanks for the video, I am very impressed with what you have done.

    Absolutely phenomenal work, and ingenuity! I saw this just over a year ago, and skipped it because I was just looking for a review of the regular interior. Now that I’m more seriously searching for a rf-246, I more fully appreciate the many things that can be done which turn a very nice boat into an excellent boat! Thank you again!!

    Brilliant work!! I don't see a single thing I'd change from what you've done here! I really like the valance and all the cupboards you've added around the wheelhouse and front cabin area. Very clean and tidy! Sure gives your interior a much more finished look and feel. Nicely done! Love Rosboroughs!!

    Excellent video. I'm not a boater but I've been pondering a smallish Ranger tug or something similar to use for the occasional overnighting and for pleasure cruising and its wonderful that folks like you take the time to give us a walk-through and one that's so detailed. Nice boat and love what you did to it to make it better and unique. Paul - Toronto.

    Thank you for sharing this video. Quite impressive!! Your use of ‘Formica’ is inspiring. Oddly, being located in Sturgeon Bay, WI, there are 2 Rosborough 24 boats in the same isle of the dock we occupy. I’m looking for the opportunity to meet the owners of those boats. I enjoyed your presentation of the modifications you’ve done.

    Nice job eon the mods and that’s coming from a carpenter with over 30 years of experience. I had to pause the video a few time to figure out what watch you were wearing. The Seiko 5 is one of the best watch values on the market. Looks great, reliable and only a slightly rattily bracelet.

    WOW great boat and nice modifications. Does the AC run with the gen. on or is it just for use at the dock ? What kind of outboard power do you have and how much fuel do you hold?

    My wife and I retired 3 years ago and would like to start a new venture in our life particularly to back on the water. Are you at all interested in selling Cool Change. Would love to have her as I'm a retired pilot of 35 years and I see the detail you lovingly put into her. Sincerely
