Well, it has been another very successful year at PowerTech!, and we have you to thank for it, yet, again. We say, “again,” because at our present rate of growth, we should end 2007 with double-digit sales growth over what was already a record year in 2006. Not only did we see amazing growth in the aluminum market, which we joined in August of 2006, but in the stainless steel market, as well.
In a continuing effort to expand into new markets and improve our product selection, we have been quite busy building new tools (molds), so that we can, not only, build new propeller designs, but also add to our available pitch ranges for existing designs. This may seem at odds with the simplification that many manufacturers seek, but for us, we see a continuing need to offer an even wider array of products to meet the many, and varied, demands of the marine industry. For example, with the advent, and sales success, of 4-stroke power plants, “big foot” motors, and the like, this has become even more critical, since the weight, power delivery and, even, gear ratios often change from their more traditional cousins. These types of changes can, often times, require changes in propeller geometry, pitch or, even, blade surface area. As always, the right tool for the right job.
We thank you, yet, again, this year, as this would not be possible without you, our PowerTech! family members.
