Did you not get the memo on that? It does say EXCLUSIVE. You may be able to get it, but it's going to be through a Mercury Dealer my friend.
(Oct 02, 2007) -
FOND DU LAC, Wis. - Mercury Marine and EngineSteer have agreed to an arrangement that grants Mercury Marine EXCLUSIVE rights to the patent for applying power steering to outboard tiller handles.
With this new agreement, Mercury Marine will become the only provider of power steering tiller handles for outboard engines. The power steering system will utilize many common parts currently used with Verado and OptiMax engines such as cylinders, hoses and the power steering pump.
Tim Merten, spokesperson for EngineSteer, believes Mercury Marine will become a dominate player in the (tiller handle) market by offering power steering for large outboard engines.
"EngineSteer is proud to partner with Mercury Marine in bringing this product to the market," Merten said |
