Ranger Boats recently announced the continuation of a long-standing partnership with Lowrance Electronics/NAVICO. The news follows the recent introduction of Ranger’s 2010 models – confirming Lowrance Electronics as standard equipment on many of the company’s 40-plus models, including a number of designs with factory-installed, full-color HDS units.
“Lowrance has a strong name and great brand awareness in the marine electronics category,” said Ranger president Randy Hopper. “We continually strive to provide our customers with the ultimate fishing experience and the advantages Lowrance offers – whether it’s the new high-definition sonar, broadband radar or GPS – allow us to do just that.”
Said Lowrance director of OEM sales Sean Hatherley: “We’re extremely excited to continue our partnership with Ranger Boats. Their commitment to quality and product innovation is a passion we share at Lowrance and we look forward to providing anglers with the tools necessary to maximize their time on the water.”
Ranger’s new 2010 model lineup includes introductions designed around the ability to flush-mount popular large-screen electronics like the HDS-8 and HDS-10 from Lowrance. The Z521 Comanche features a totally redesigned console with room to center-mount an HDS-8, while the new 621VS Fisherman – also sporting a new console – provides room to flush mount the HDS-10.
