Manufacturers Description 

The primary design goal for the 40z was to create a 40 foot powerboat that would handle like a

30-footer at idle speeds in tricky docking situations. The Volvo-Penta IPS or joystick control

technology makes this goal a reality. The IPS system works with twin pod drives under the hull.

When conventional twin-engine controls are in neutral, a single joystick takes over with fingertip

control. There are no thrusters. Through a unique computer program, each drive unit is

independently operated in terms of direction, rpm and forward-reverse gear. This system works

far more intuitively than conventional twin shaft drives or joystick/thruster operated jet drives.

Unique Features

– Sliding glass side windows and fully-opening powered windshields to regulate airflow in the
