Frankie’s TESTRIDE™ Event in Chisago City, Minnesota

 

Minneapolis, Minn. (Aug. 17, 2016) – Next up for the 2016 TESTRIDE season is a familiar stop at Paradise Park in Chisago City on the northeast side of the Twin Cities in Minnesota. On Saturday, August 20, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., TESTRIDE will host free rides on Evinrude-powered Ranger Boats with skilled, professional anglers at the helm. Open to the public, TESTRIDE welcome the whole family to explore these brands’ performance on the water: Ranger, Evinrude, Humminbird, Minn Kota, and Talon.

 

The event is in partnership with Frankie’s Open House and city-wide festivities. “Recently honored as Dealer of the Year with Ranger Boats, Frankie’s always offers impeccable selection and service,” said George Liddle of Ranger Boats. “We’re excited to showcase great boats, motors and electronics options for future boat purchases.” Folks interested are encouraged to look for the blue TESTRIDE tents to sign up or secure a specific appointment time through the TESTRIDE Facebook page.

 

“Testride customers will experience the industry leading Evinrude E- TEC G2 power and performance which is paired perfectly with Ranger boats,” said Krista Heidgerken, Senior Communications Specialist for Evinrude Outboards. “Customers will also have the opportunity to meet with factory reps and ask questions prior to making a purchase. The Ranger/Evinrude package speaks for itself on the water.” Anglers appreciate Evinrude’s cutting-edge design, with more than 350 different color combinations to match any boat package. The 20% better fuel efficiency, 20% less oil consumption, and 75% less emissions creates superb value, and with 610-foot pounds of torque, the performance provides confidence to handle any situation on the water. Along with a six-year warranty, if a TESTRIDE participant buys within 10 days of the event, the buyer will receive a stainless steel propeller of their choice.

As an incentive to purchase, a set of two Mustang Ranger Boats’ logoed PFDs are available to any new in stock or custom order Ranger Boat within 60 days of taking a TESTRIDE. A free sponsor logo’d hat is available for the first 50 to TESTRIDE.
