BRP's Evinrude dealer network continues to grow

STURTEVANT, WIS., Oct. 20, 2014 /CNW/ - BRP (TSX: DOO) has added 17 new North American Evinrude dealers to its network in the last three months.

Since the beginning of the year, 67 new North American dealers are now offering consumers Evinrude outboard engines. These now provide more boaters with the opportunity to experience its industry-leading E-TEC technology and the striking new vertical design, clean-rigging package and best-in-class fuel efficiency of the revolutionary Evinrude E-TEC G2 outboard engines.

"We're happy to provide more engine options to our customers, and the Evinrude E-TEC G2 engines are a fantastic addition to our boat selection," said Rich Munoz, owner of Pompano Beach, Florida's Boat Kings. "We already have plans to rig the Starcraft Tri-toon and Crossover boats as well as Striper Boats with Evinrude E-TEC G2 power. The ability to color-match the engine to the boat, the innovative i-Trim technology and integrated power steering delivers great value and performance to our customers." 

"BRP is committed to developing strong relationships with the most reputable dealers in the industry; dealers who provide good customer service," said Alain Villemure, vice-president and general manager of BRP's Marine Propulsion Systems division. "Adding new dealers to our existing network further increases our opportunity to share the new era of outboard engines, the Evinrude E-TEC G2 outboards, with more consumers."
