- Welcome to Club BRP in Salt Lake City, Utah, where we are officially launching the New Generation of Manitou Pontoons. Join us as our BRP Management Team reveals how the New Generation of Manitou was designed to rise above in every way, and elevate the on-water experience to a whole new level.

That outboard was designed in a board room by suits and ties who can't back a boat into the water. #fail
Hey this was the event I was kicked out of! Wow my followers really missed out on a lot of good stuff!
He mentioned the full trim... 😂 I didn't hear any advantage.
I can see why you got kicked out of this… no way they would have let you tell the truth about this dumb motor. No one asked for this motor and all the industry wants is for Evinrude to come back with a reliable 4 stroke. Honestly BRP should sell the rights to evinrude to a different company if they aren’t going to do anything with it
You didn't miss a damn thing if this video is what we have to go on. (Regarding the motor) Great response video you put out on your channel though!
@@chasegould6404 actually most of the people that want evinrude back want the 2 stroke
What were you kicked out for?
Way to deliver a product that nobody asked for or wanted! BRP will run Manitou into the dirt and that's a shame
So sad that he has to clap himself first...
This guy is putting me to sleep...he has no passion.
@BRP come back to the industry with a reliable 4 stroke outboard with the evinrude name. No one asked for this motor and no one cares about deck space versus a reliable sleek looking outboard like the Yamaha Sho or Mercury Pro XS. Both those motors are reliable and have trusted name. Bring a new 4 stroke to the market that will bring new customers in and make them life long customers with a reliable and powerful motor that looks good. You have the money, you have the power, but lack imagination and simply have done the wrong innovations. The G2 for example should have been a 4 stroke. Release what the public wants and what the bass fishing industry wants. A reliable EVINRUDE motor. If you won’t use the name. Sell it to a company that will.
Whether you're team 2 stroke or team 4 stroke, both sides can celebrate the fact these new generation of boats may be rigged with either and up to 600HP on the Explore model in dual engine configuration.
@@Manitoupontoonboats Good luck selling it with your motor on it then.
@@Manitoupontoonboats bring back the evinrude etec 2 stroke they stopped producing in 2020 not this garbage ghost motor I want to see my outboard and with this crap design the weigh is hanging way to far back from the transom whoever came up with this Rotax ghost outboard should be fired.
That has to be one of the most ridiculous comments I've ever seen.
There is no reason whatsoever to demand a 4-stroke when the 2-stroke performs beautifully. And for absolutely certain MOST people care VERY MUCH about space robbed by ridiculous traditional outboard engines. I never understood how the outboard craze ever even got so big with all the drawbacks.
Everything you complain about is based on nothing: there is no basis on your wanting "a reliable engine" when we can expect the Rotax outboards to be just as reliable. And there is no drawback to this new outboard type, no reason whatsoever to complain about it and how it clears deck space!
Using the Evinrude name instead of Rotax? That is an ok suggestion, and I would agree...then again I'm not for using brand names 'falsely' just for marketing, I think it's better for them to just go with the Rotax name if that's what the new engine really is, no matter how much Evinrude tech they'd use with it. In 10 years this will be a non-issue and people will be used to the name "Rotax" being on the side of their outboards.
@@machew2009 How much further is it hanging compared to 'traditional' outboards? Are you sure that traditional outboards don't actually have a lot higher shear forces acting on the transom with their leverage resulting from having the engine high up at a longer distance from the attachment point as well as behind the transom? Seems to me the old style outboards will be shaking and imparting far higher loads than these new Rotax outboards.
See, you're talking nonsense.
Bad bad bad garbage nothing like buying a boat that can't be re powered by a different brand and who thought it was a good idea to put a motor half under water?
We designed these new generation of boats knowing customers would want a wide range of power options. They may be rigged with the new Rotax outboard engines or a traditional engine of your choice--up to 600HP on the Explore model with dual engine configuration.
@@Manitoupontoonboats so your saying if i buy a boat designed for the ghost engine, if and when it fails i can rig a merc or yamaha on it?????????
I'm beginning to think this comment section is being bombarded by competitors' bots and astroturfers. Despicable behavior, spewing nonsense negative comments...
@@pistonburner6448 or maybe normal ppl with logical common sense whom happen to be in the industry?????
@@dozer8065 Well, where are the logical arguments against it then? Why are there only nonsense hot takes without any reasoning?
Wouldn’t touch that underboard with a 10 foot pole 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
A stern drive with every thing hanging in the water.
What could go wrong?
Very cool concept nice design, but there’s some things that I see failing. Looks like a lot of cheap material. They probably spent a lot in shaping the metal body but instead of selling me the cheapest smallest boat in that model for $70,000 which I’m sure will be much more, they could have kept the old aluminum standard panels and sold me that smallest version of this model for 10 grand less! I’m a little weary on them using their Rotax motor on an outboard drive that’s brand new for mechanics to work or up charge you for extra hours for repair if they can repair it! The rear swim platform is a smart idea, but I’m not sure to what cost , when I can buy an inflatable 6’ x 15’ x 6“ floating platform for $300. Also, thank you Greg from product strategies for teaching me that if nobody claps for my accomplishments, 6:10 I can just clap for myself and get a couple pity claps. If nobody was clapping and seemed impressed it’s because no one knew the intricate struggles that were defined to be important. Behind-the-scenes hard Work doesn’t translate to an audience who doesn’t make boats. I’m pretty sure people instead of clapping were thinking why is this guy sound like he’s reading a que card very poorly when he should be eating drinking and breathing all this information???! It doesn’t instill confidence and doesn’t sound genuine!
So I can’t find anywhere the break in specs or warranty information on this new style engine…. Someone has this information but I can’t find it
Where is the cover, the magnificent tent that take hours to take off and back on after each ride ?
Dropping the only outboard offering was a horrible decision. I cannot just go buy a Rotax and mount it to my present boat. And I would NEVER EVER have a four stroke outboard.
Do they make a reverse turn version? Would be interesting to see a twin outboard with this engine. If it’s light weight it might be a good option for people looking to replace their aging 2-strokes, despite its weird look.
Hi Marc! Twin engine configuration is an option. On the Explore model for example, up to 600HP 💪
BRP Ghost concept is junk, a mercruiser or Volvo penta stern drive would be far better solution for the same form factor.
Otherwise put a standard outboard on the boat and stop selling garbage that boat buyers do not want.
Why is this comments section full of absolutely zero-IQ complaints based on total nonsense?
Who compares a small boat's outboard to a Volvo Penta? Who complains about a BETTER outboard configuration that doesn't ridiculously stick up in the back of the boat completely blocking the use of the rear area, and that has no real drawbacks at all compared to that ridiculous old style engine?
I can tell you that real boat buyers and users definitely want this new type of engine. Best of both worlds: outboard cost, flexibility and noise levels with the better boat layout of an inboard.
BRP is not going to rock the boating industry, on the contrary BRP is gonna get rocked right out of the boating industry with product recalls,law suits, unhappy dealer support! They will ironically be a "ghost" in the industry!!!
Does bot offer same advantages of traditional outboards the way this outboard hangs makes the weight hang to far back from the transom causing much slower planning times you will see do us all a favor bring back evinrude etec 2 stroke more traditional outboard and have them installed on boats from factory I would so buy a alumacraft if I could get it with a traditional evinride etec 2 stroke but until that happens I guess I will have to buy a boat not made buy BRP
No thanks #fail
Another bot/astroturfer. How scummy are BRP's competitors to actually do this? It would be great if for once the police would track down who is behind at least one of these slander campaigns and found out who the guilty company is (and which company sells this service for them), and they could then be sued to oblivion and lose their reputation forever.
So in salt water, it must pulled or lifted each night and flushed. In other words it’s a fresh water boat only. It only has trim but no full tilt out of the water.
Hi Michael. The engine has full Trim AND Tilt capacity, meaning you can tilt it out of the water and flush it. You can find out more on our Rotax page. www.manitoupontoonboats.com/us/en/discover-manitou/advantages/rotax.html
@@Manitoupontoonboats Some feedback:
It would be great if BRP had a good introductory video on the new Rotax stealth outboard. Right now after a long search I could simply not find any good dedicated videos on those engines on RUclips, and very little online overall.
I suggest you quickly introduce at least one short and one more thorough dedicated video about the Rotax outboards, clearly titled and marked as being about the new engines themselves (not just a short, insufficient bit in the middle of videos on boats).
And I don't understand why a big company like BRP doesn't have a proper introductory page with all the basics and then all the details on those engines, which they would have on the Rotax site as well as attached to all websites selling boats using that engine type.
That material could then also be linked to all the various boating medias, as now any news I see on the engine is relying on very limited media content from Rotax. You're going to get lots of news on this new engine, it's a shame you're wasting this marketing opportunity where you could direct people seeing initial news about this engine to your more thorough content (which you can then also have linking to your product pages and boats).
Actually I believe you're creating suspicion and confusion among customers as people looking into the engines might find it questionable that the web is silent on its existence. People get reassured by there being proper information about products that seem big-budget, as well as lots of enthusiasm and talk about it in the medias. Especially with new types of products.
There's so much FUD with new products, like for example an engine being half-submerged... You could easily clear that up with your explanations of why it isn't risky, and how you have so many decades of experience with engines in Sea-Doos.
Disappointing to see another fantastic brand gobbled up by BRP. I have always admired Manitou and the amazing boats they used to build. End of an era! Will be interesting to see what they come out with for a new flagship.
All ya need to know

So you can still put a traditional outboard engine on this boat, or two if you wish. It will cost $200,000 though.
So what's so bad about this?
Very disappointing.. an under water engine design that adds unwanted engine and deck complexity all for the benefit of not seeing the engine. This arrangement will absolutely result in increased maintenance repair costs after the warranty expires. To me it seems like total poser boat, more style than substance.
Can't believe BRP gave up on Evinrude in exchange for that new Rotax motor with it's underwater powerhead. Good luck with that POS. BRP - go back and either improve the ETEC and G2 series or develop a 4-stroke powerhead like everybody else did and give us back our EVINRUDE outboards!!
This new boat design is so ugly and there is no wow affect except that wow brp is trying to put all these once awesome boats alumacraft out of business what a shame and brp should be ashamed of them selves you should have kept making the evinrude etec outboards and just started installing on your own boats instead of trying to redesign the things people loved and make things people will hate and by game changing if you mean junk then you are right. Please bring back what people really want the evinrude etec 2 stroke outboard not this garbage. The only thing you will be blowing away is this once good brand blowing them away into the out of business category
