NEWS - Streaker Boats and Easytow trailers hook up
Melbourne boat manufacturer, Streaker Boats, has announced that all its boats will be packaged exclusively with Easytow Boat Trailers.
After exhaustive research and product development, Streaker said it and Easytow formed the alliance to deliver a better towing product for Streaker customers.
Streaker regards the Easytow brand as the Mercedes-Benz of boat trailers, and these are specifically and individually matched to each model in the Streaker range.
“We very much like the fact that Easytow builds custom trailers designed specifically to match our hulls,” said Leon Savage of Streaker Boats.
The boatbuilder said the benefits for customers are huge, as virtually all the way across the Streaker range, every boat sits about 100mm lower than on alternative trailers. This, said Streaker, makes the boats easier to tow, easier to launch and very much easier to retrieve, plus reduces the overall height for storage.
Streaker added that frame width, the height issue and layout of the rollers have been specifically designed to suit Streaker boats.
“We shipped every Streaker model to the Easytow factory in regional Victoria to get the range of Easytow trailers organised,” Savage explained.
“To their credit, the Easytow people refuse to cut corners to produce their custom line up of trailers. We are very impressed and our Streaker customers will certainly appreciate the quality of the trailer now supplied with their Streaker boat,” he said.
Streaker said Easytow Boat Trailers was established in 1965 and currently builds 1600 boat trailers a year, priding itself on quality of design, components and manufacture.
From the tow hitch all the way through to the LED lights at the rear, Streaker said Easytow goes the extra distance to ensure that quality is rated ahead of price.
Components including high-quality jockey wheels, NSK bearings with two part seals and Dura Hubs, 5mm stainless steel brake cables, LED lights and sealed wiring looms are utilised to ensure trouble-free trailering, said Streaker.
The rollers, it added, are Australian made, as are the axles and hubs, while quality Dunlop or Goodyear tyres are used to give customers Australia-wide support through Beaurepaire tyre centres.
Streaker Boats is also an authorised dealer for Quintrex, Streaker, Larson, Yamaha outboards and WaveRunners, and is a Yamaha Platinum dealer.
