MANITOU PONTOON BOATS FIRST TO OFFER
TELEFLEX MARINE??S
NEW XTREME? STEERING SYSTEMS
Boat Builder To Install New Xtreme? Mechanical
or SeaStar® Hydraulic Steering On All 2013 Models.
Teleflex Marine announced that Manitou Pontoon Boats,
manufacturer of a full line of pontoon boats including the popular X-plode
series with patented V-Toon® Technology, will offer their buyers a
choice of either the new Xtreme mechanical or SeaStar hydraulic steering
systems. With Teleflex Marine??s Xtreme system, customers can enjoy a new level
of steering ease and control on a wide range of Manitou pontoons.
??Manitou is the first company to fully
commit to our new Xtreme system,? said Tom Douglass, VP of sales and marketing
for Teleflex Marine. ??We appreciate Manitou??s confidence in our new system.
Their customers will be thrilled with the performance.?
Teleflex Marine Xtreme Steering reduces
the effort required to turn the wheel in boats with higher horsepower engines
or hulls with large wetted surfaces, such as pontoons. A key to this new system??s performance is Teleflex Marine??s Xtreme
Steering Cable. This robust, high performance cable features splined ridges on
the inner liner for minimal contact between the liner and core. The resulting
reduction in cable friction not only improves performance, it keeps the entire
steering system running smoother, longer.
This new generation
steering cable is matched with Teleflex Marine??s new Xtreme Steering Helm
featuring a
high-efficiency, custom gear train and an improved No Feedback? (NFB) clutch
that minimizes the affects of engine torque.
??Manitou Pontoon Boats has always taken pride in
providing the BEST steering available to our customers, giving them a
pleasurable and safe boating experience. Young or old, male or female, everyone
will feel comfortable driving a Manitou. To accomplish this, we have made the
investment in customer satisfaction by offering only Teleflex Xtreme Mechanical
Steering, SeaStar Hydraulic Steering or SeaStar Power Assist Steering as
STANDARD equipment,? said Scott Vanwagenen, President of
Manitou Pontoon Boats.
