Ranger is a company with rich history and more tournament experience than any other brand in the boating industry. There are a lot of things that make Ranger boats so special, starting from the hull design, interior space, trailer features and of course the highly skilled people that make them.

Pultrusion is the technology used for constructing Ranger boats and has several advantages. First of all, the Pultruded Fiberglass has supreme stiffness, strength and durability, compared to cheaper composite materials. Pultrusion is patented by the Ranger company, and it’s one of the reasons why there is no boat like the Ranger. It generates a more consistent part with higher glass to resin ratios, which basically means that it provides greater strength in the floor, decks, and throughout the entire boat.

The highly-advanced superstructure guarantess that the hull and deck are completely isolated from even the most intensive vibrations and rough water. Their tournament proven pultruted fiberglass stringer system and knee braces are engineered to help dissipate and disperse the pounding shock of rough water. The hull stakes are filled with a stress-directed fiberglass as oppose to the much weaker putty used by other manufacturers.

Another unique thing about Ranger boats is the one-piece-feel ‘Interloc’ construction, meaning that the entire internal framework is designed to function as one solid piece. All the structural components are reinforced to produce smooth, stable and responsive ride and handling. As a result, the boat is quiet, durable and you can see that there is supreme attention given to all the details in a Ranger. Also, the entire produce line is NMMA certified using ABYC standards.

But the innovations don’t end here. The Rite-Track Keel technology, again patented by Ranger, makes sure that more of the hull is in the water and less of it is exposed to the wind. This design not only minimizes the lateral drift and damages that wind makes on the hull, but also makes tralling easier and tracking more solid. The deeper keel and low profile layout results in less wind resistance and improved maneuverability. Longer cure times and incredibly detailed commitment to mold preparation and maintenance increase the hull performance and overall quality.

A Ranger is truly a dream rig. It’s warranted for as long as you own it and the warranty is transferable. The trailer is covered for three years as well as many of the parts installed by the factory.
