IPS Demonstration

Boating is such a relaxing lifestyle. Anyone can get on a boat, no matter what kind it is, and their worries will drift away. Whether it's fishing, skiing or cruising, it takes your mind off the daily grind and the normal hustle & bustle everyone deals with. What a stress reliever - that is until you have to dock in front of a bunch of people.

Docking might be the one time their is a little anxiety when boating. Fortunately, Volvo has designed the IPS drive with Joystick control. This feature makes for worry free docking. They have made it so simple that your children or grandchildren that play video games might be able to dock the boat better than you!

Below is a link to a demonstration we did on a Four Winns 378 Vista Express Cruiser in our harbor in St. Petersburg. This boat is almost 42 feet in length and is being easily manuevered in an area a little over 50 feet. Check it out for yourself.
