Baja's 405 Performance Debuts New Technology At The Miami International Boat Show
BUCYRUS, Ohio (Feb. 1, 2007) - Visitors to this year's Miami International Boat Show can view Baja's 405 Performance with cutting-edge technology Feb. 15-19. The 405 Performance will feature Mercury Marine's innovative SeaCore, DTS and SmartCraft technologies and will be displayed in slip 218 of the Mercury Marine booth at the Sea Isle Marina & Yachting Center. These Mercury technologies will be optional on all new Bajas.
"The combination of all three of these technologies is truly pushing the envelope," said J.R. Jenney, Baja's director of sales. "Baja is one of the first manufacturers to offer SeaCore. And the simultaneous incorporation of SmartCraft and DTS help take Baja to another level of both durability and precision."
The MerCruiser SeaCore System is the world's premier saltwater system and offers the ultimate in corrosion protection for marine propulsion systems. It protects drive components to their core with industrial hard-coat anodizing, a closed-cooling system and widespread use of stainless steel components. For boat builders such as Baja who are Installation Quality Certified by Mercury, the SeaCore System includes a four-year standard limited warranty in the United States and Canada and a four-year limited warranty on corrosion.
"SeaCore benefits bigger boats like the 405, because they tend to remain in the water between uses and are exposed to saltwater longer," said John Wentzel, business development manager of Mercury Marine. "SeaCore ensures the drive and engine are protected for maximum durability."
In conjunction with Baja's focus on performance, Mercury's DTS (Digital Throttle System) provides unparalleled smooth, precise and effortless shifting. This system includes a digital steering sensor that indicates the position of the drive and "SmartStart," which allows the system to start itself with the simple turn of a key or push of a button.
"The fact that the 405 has SeaCore, DTS and SmartCraft demonstrates that Baja is on the forefront of new technology," said Wentzel.
SmartCraft links a boat's power and controls as well as internal and external sensors to provide accurate, up-to-the-second and comprehensive information. Captains can monitor fuel flow, estimated range, charging level and air, water and engine temperatures and receive maintenance and service advice conveniently from one location, rather than at various points on the boat.
"This 405 Performance features the latest technology in the industry," said Rob Parmentier, president of Baja Marine. "We are proud to work with Mercury Marine to provide our customers with even more precise and safe handling and even better performance."
