"TESTRIDE is an incredible opportunity to look at the amazing screens on the new Helix units from Johnson Outdoors," said George Liddle of Ranger Boats. "Getting to see the pros use their Talon shallow water anchors and their Ulterra trolling motors with real-time experience -- it couldn't be more valuable."
The first 50 attendees who take a TESTRIDE receive a free logoed gift. In addition, a set of two Mustang Ranger logoed PFDs are available to any new in stock or custom order Ranger Boat within 60 days of taking a TESTRIDE.
