Detroit Escorts: High Tech Hot Wheels from McConaghy International

November 3, 2009 at 7:49 am | In Detroit escorts | No Comments

Skippers keep asking for McConaghy steering systems because the ergonomics of the wheel simply let their hands last longer, after hours and hours on the helm. It turns out that it’s not just Maxi’s like ‘ICAP Leopard 3’ and ‘Alfa Romeo’ that have them. Ocean Racer Skippers the world over literally stand behind the famous McConaghy Carbon Fibre steering wheel!
Just like F1, where technology such as Variable Inlet Tract Length ends up filtering down to the more humble automobiles, the same applies to sailing gear that was once only found on Maxi’s, America’s Cup and of course the mighty Volvo Ocean Racing Yachts.
Now the McConaghy Y-Spoke wheel, the wheel behind many professional pedestals, is available as a production piece adding both pace and pizzazz to consumer yachts everywhere. If you’re of the age bracket that understands cable TV, then you too can ‘pimp your ride’. Just like Mercedes-Benz’s AMG Black Series now sports carbon fibre elements, owners can option up their yacht with stylish, yet very functional carbon-fibre bits.
