Ranger introduces Sport Utility Vessel for 2008
The size, features and adaptability of the sport utility vehicle have made it become the norm for those towing boats, taking long vacations or just driving to the store. Now, the same attitude has been infused into a trailerable, fiberglass fishing boat, making it the ideal platform for a multitude of on-the-water functions: from cruising and water sports to serious fishing and long hauls.
