Australia, September, 2009 – Evinrude E-TEC, Australia's cleanest outboard engine brand, has teamed up with the Australian Volunteer Coast Guard, helping power rescue fleet vessels.
The partnership has seen two of the Volunteer Coast Guards primary vessels – Jupiter One and Pride of Maryborough – be powered by quality Evinrude 150hp engines.
William Voerman, Evinrude Outboard Manager commented, "The Australian Volunteer Coast Guard is the largest single volunteer marine rescue and education organisation in the Southern Hemisphere and has been in operation since 1961. Evinrude E-TEC have been around a while as well, promoting responsible and safe boating for more than 100 years, so the partnership is a great fit".
"We are proud to be associated with such a valuable community service like the Australian Volunteer Coast Guard and look forward to continuing to work with them in the near future".
Bill Towers, Commander of the Volunteer Coast Guard said, "The crews are very happy with the performance of these engines … we have had service of exceptional quality from BRP and their local dealer in Sandy Straights, Hervey Bay Marine".
