This experience, combined with customer feedback, created the foundation of our product design approach and has led to the benefits realized across all cylinder configurations of the Series 2000 M96L. These clean and quiet engines are also complimented by the new Heading Hold feature on our Joystick Control system. The mtu package ensures sportsfishermen aren’t burdened by their equipment and provides them the freedom to focus on their next big catch.”
