GLOVERSVILLE, N.Y. - Taylor Made Products announced it has acquired the rights to the Boat Misters® product line. The company will introduce the latest addition to its line of recreational boating products at IBEX 2008, October 6 - 8 in Miami.

The new Comfort Zone™ Boat Misting System attaches to the boat's bimini or T-Top and emits a cooling mist that reduces on-deck temperatures by up to 30 degrees. The unique mid-pressure pump delivers 150 psi of misting power at the rate of about one gallon of fresh water per hour while only drawing one amp. The system can be used on existing bimini and T-Tops or designed-in by the boat manufacturer as an integrated system.

"As the world leader in aftermarket canvas and bimini tops for boaters, the Comfort Zone system was a natural fit for us," said Dave Karpinski, vice president of sales and marketing, Taylor Made Products. "This is a new, innovative approach to an on-board misting system that brings true evaporative cooling performance at a cost-effective level."

The Misting Kit contains everything needed, including pressurizing pump, misting line, water inlet tubing, misting nozzles with T-connector fittings, bimini mounting clips, 12-volt power plug and inline sediment filters. The misting line can be cut to any length for nozzle placement and is easily adjusted due to specialized push-to-disconnect/reconnect connectors.
