TAYLOR MADE SYSTEMS ADDS NEW FEATURES TO ULTRA III HATCHES


GLOVERSVILLE, N.Y. – January 31, 2007 – Taylor Made Systems has added several design enhancements to its line of Ultra III hatches.

The re-styled patent-pending hatches now include positive locking support arms, ergonomically designed handles with locking features, fully-welded aluminum frames, and a weather-resistant powder coated finish. The hatches sport a sleek, low-profile appearance with no exposed hinges and offer a choice of tempered safety glass or acrylic lens. For added safety and convenience, the hatches also lock in a vented position.

The ISO-compliant hatches come completely assembled with a pre-drilled mounting base and available deck mounting gaskets.

“Taylor Made Systems is committed to rigorous product testing,” said Mike Oathout, vice president of sales and marketing for Taylor Made Systems. “Positive feedback from our customers has played a major role in the engineering of our new, more attractive and durable hatch system.”

A replacement for the Ultra II hatches, the Ultra III originally debuted at the 2005 International Boatbuilders’ Exhibition (IBEX).
