New Zealand to provide installation, engineering and marketing

support, as well as training in engine operation and servicing.

Bolting the engines to the Everglades 350CC’s transom went

with a separate hydraulic steering pump and engine trim pumps.

On the Everglades, the pumps are neatly installed in a large

storage locker under the cockpit sole, the hydraulic hoses exiting

the transom through holes especially cut for the purpose.
