“That’s a completely astounding experience when we got on the product,” said Jan-Erik Viitala, Axopar Boats Co-Founding Partner. “

“We have the ability now to put more horsepower on some of our boats that need it,” said Dave Wallace, Scout Boats senior vice president & COO. “In the past we couldn’t do it because of the weight factor.”
