Power and Associates award for “Highest in Customer Satisfaction with Pontoon Boats”* at the Miami International Boat Show yesterday.“Receiving this award is a public declaration of what Manitou has believed all along, quality boats and superior service translate into satisfied customers. I believe our cutting edge product offering, lifelong employee base, loyal service oriented dealers and numerous satisfied customers are what have made receiving this award possible” said Scott VanWagenen, president of Manitou Pontoon Boats. J.D. Power and Associates measures customer satisfaction and product performance in six factors for the pontoon segment: engine; ride/handling; helm/instrument panel; design/styling; sound system; and fishing. In all, J.D. Power and Associates surveys thousands of consumers to determine the level of satisfaction for the annual award.  “We are very excited that this is the second time in the past three years that Manitou has received this prestigious award. At Manitou our focus has always been to build a quality pontoon boat with a most recent emphasis on performance handling pontoons equipped with V-Toon Technology TM. We take great pride in receiving the J.D. Power and Associates award and thanks goes to all of our dealers and employees for their hard earned efforts”. Six for Six and Counting The Marine Industry CSI Awards program recognizes participating companies actively measuring customer satisfaction to pursue continuous improvement. Award recipients achieved and maintained an independently-measured standard of excellence of 90 percent or higher in customer satisfaction over the past year, based on information provided by more than 50,000 consumers purchasing a new boat or engine during the period between July 2006 and June 2007. A minimum of 25 consumer responses are required to qualify.Manitou has received the CSI Award every years since its inception. Setting the bar for performace pontoons The SHP package is the most innovative concept to hit the pontoon market since the advent of the triple tube. This package will make you the envy of the lake. Choose any of the boats below and add the SHP option for the ultimate pontoon experience. Every SHP comes standard with Hydraulic Power Assist Steering, allowing for effortless steering and precision control. The SHP design is perfect for water-skiing, tubing and even barefoot skiing. What is the Manitou Sport Handling Package? Manitou has used its 20 years experience in pontoon design to provide a package that allows for performance previously not seen on high horsepower pontoon boats. Several components work together to make the SHP a unique vessel. All Manitou SHP models are underskinned triple tube models which feature a center tube which is larger than the outside tubes. This center tube is mounted lower than the outside tubes, preventing ventilation during sharp turning. Lifting strakes are standard on the inside and outside of all three tubes, allowing for quicker planning and better hole shot. The final component of the Manitou SHP is a Sea Star Hydraulic Steering System with power assist unit. These components work together to provide outstanding performance. What are some of the advantages of the Manitou SHP? To understand the SHP advantage, you must first understand how performance pontoons have evolved. A typical pontoon hull is considered a displacement hull, not a planing hull like a fiberglass speedboat. In addition to being far less efficient than a planing hull, a displacement hull does not allow a pontoon to bank gracefully at high speeds. In years past, many pontoon owners with high horsepower motors have been disappointed with their boats' performance. The Manitou SHP has created a hull design which acts as a planning hull. Hard cornering to the outside has been replaced with a more natural inward banking. The Sea Star Hydraulic Steering with power assist allows you to turn this boat at wide open throttle without any hesitation. This is unlike any pontoon previously on the market. You can have the handling and performance of a fiberglass boat with the stability and floor space of a pontoon. ·  How did Manitou achieve this industry leading performance? Our quality construction allows us to offer the SHP. Unlike some competitors, we do not cut corners in our construction. By using extruded hat crossmembers, full length risers, thicker aluminum in the tubes, and the strongest deck in the industry, Manitou manufactures a boat that can withstand the demands placed on modern high horsepower performance pontoon boats. Check out the motor pod on a Manitou. The .160" thick motor pod is bolted at 20 locations to extruded hat crossmembers. Others with flimsy construction know better than to subject their motor pod construction to these forces. For long term durability, today's high horsepower motors need the adequate support that only Manitou offers. ·  How is the SHP steering system different than conventional hydraulic steering? The Manitou SHP features a Teleflex Sea Star Hydraulic Steering System with Power Assist. Similar to many automobiles, this hydraulic system uses an electric pump to allow steering with your finger tips. If you are tired of fighting with your big outboard, maybe its time you test drove a Manitou SHP. This boat powers through corners, even with a full load.
