Thank You Ron Duran

Thank You Ron Duran - 02/03/22 03:39 PM

Those of us that own a (larger) boat know that it can sometimes (most times) be difficult to get in and out while launching and retrieving. And two weeks ago while trying to retrieve, I lost my balance and ended up in waist deep water....at 49 degrees. And as luck would have it, Nancy (my better half), was there to witness it. On the ride home she told me, several times, that we would need something that would allow me to not get so wet. So I called my friend Ron Duran, who just happens to be very good at building most anything and told him I needed steps for my trailer. Yesterday Ron brought over, and attached to my boat trailer, the nicest steps you've ever seen. They are truly professionally made. And as I'm terrible at attaching pictures to my TFF posts, hopefully Ron will come on here and show you what I now have. Thanks again Ron!!!!!!

Forget the pics of the steps. . . I want to see the video of you in waist deep freezing water. roflmao

Glad your OK. That’s never fun. Been there done that on slippery ramps in the winter.

Thank you Guy for the kind words and your business. Just give me a call if I can ever help you out.

Those last two pics are of the step that I removed from my trailer. It's in perfect condition. Retailed for $125....I'll sell for $60

Nice work Ron. Need to keep Guy safe.
Best option I ever added to a trailer was steps. Won't own one without them now.

Not only is Ron a good dude who makes quality stuff, he also picks up the phone and helps wherever he can try to help people out fishing or otherwise.

Jokes on you though, he probably put a GPS on your boat so he can track all your honey holes! roflmao

I have an Easy Step System and have had two and love them. I had one on a 18' Kenner and I have one on my 19' Skeeter. As a disable Vet that has had 4 back surgeries the Easy Step is a life saver. Give them a call and they can help you out.
Vets get a discount, https://easystepsystem.com/ Good Luck and stay dry.
