KEY POINTS:
Lighthouse Marine Equipment are now marketing and selling Teleflex's Sea Star hydraulic steering systems after an agreement with the sole New Zealand supplier, BLANZ.
Lighthouse executive director Mike Harris says his staff have many years of sales and technical experience with Sea Star products and can offer strong aftermarket support.
"Sea Star is the world leader in marine hydraulic steering technology and we pride ourselves on offering our customers the right product for their needs," Harris says.
Steering equipment is one of the most important pieces of equipment on any boat and "with Sea Star we can ensure our customers' steering comfort and safety".
"Teleflex/Seastar have been the world leader in quality and market share for decades and continue to lead the way in steering solution management. We are proud to be connected to a brand that has delivered so much innovation and reliability to the trailer-boat and larger power boat markets."
The Sea Star power-assisted hydraulic steering systems are currently on display at Lighthouse Marine Equipment's Albany showroom.
