Evinrude E-TEC dominates National Bream Classic
Sydney Harbour was the setting and Evinrude E-TEC was the power of choice when 20 teams gathered for the grand final of the Sydney City Toyota National Bream Classic staged in conjunction with last month's Sydney International Boat ShowEvinrude maker Bombardier Recreational Products said the tournament was a triumph for its E-TEC outboards, with the first five place-getters and 70 per cent of participants all choosing the engine.
The seven-month tournament started in Sydney in February, moved to Victoria, Port Macquarie and the Gold Coast prior to the Sydney 'shootout.'
With more than $150,000 in cash and prizes on offer, competition was hard fought, with little separating the leaders.
Chris Cleaver and Joel Teggart (Team Squidgies) were the winners, their Haines Hunter Pro-Strike powered by a 150hp HO Evinrude E-TEC, with another identical rig crewed by Mark Dunphy and Craig Simmons (Team Shimano) taking second, and Bill Karayannis and Richard Robson (Team Sportfish), their boat sporting a 200hp Evinrude E-TEC, in third place.
