STURTEVANT, WI, May 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ - BRP will take over the Milwaukee shoreline from June 13 to June 16 and change the way you look at the outboard engine industry.

"BRP is known for its innovation. Our design and engineering teams have consistently designed and built the most cutting-edge technologies in the business. Dealers attending this Club event will see and experience first-hand how we intend to create a new era of outboards," said Alain Villemure, vice-president and general manager of BRP's Marine Propulsion Systems division.
