FARMINGTON, Ark., Jan. 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Highline
Technical Innovations, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: HLNT) announced today that
its Rhode Island based dealer,
Hydro-Gen, LLc was featured in an article written by Don Cuddy of the Standard Times, a Rhode Island publication.
Hydro-Gen recently installed a Wildcat 9000 on the Direction, a
lobster boat home ported in Fairhaven, Rhode Island. Hydro-Gen has installed
several of HTI's Wildcat hydrogen supplemental system on lobster
boats with The Dragon Lady being one of the first installations for
the dealer. The lobster boats Direction and Dragon Lady and
their captains, Grant Moore and
Scott Christopher are known for
their roles in the Discovery Channel's reality TV series on
off-shore lobster fishing.
Jack Ferland, owner of Hydro-Gen
informed the paper that people he dealt with were skeptical at
first, but the word about the technology was becoming more widely
known. Jack Ferland and his partner,
Jack Incollingo, focus on the
fishing and transportation industries in their region.
Charlton Coats, HTI CEO stated, "The
most impressive point in the article that stood out to me was a
quote from Captain Moore when he said that his mast that was once
black, was now white". The quote from the article that Mr.
Coats was referring to was that Captain Moore agreed that he has
certainly saved fuel and money with the device. "I'm not creating
any more horsepower, but I am definitely gaining efficiency. If you
take a gallon of fuel and only burn 80 percent of it, the other 20
percent is just going up the stack," he said. "With this I'm
burning 98 percent." It is also demonstrably cleaner, he said.
"Just go outside and look at the mast," he said. "It's painted
white but it used to be black from the exhaust. Same with the
hull." The article can be viewed in its entirety on the news
website, www.southcoasttoday.com.
