As you go out boating more often, you start to notice the aspects of your current boat that you would change. These changes will likely lead you to the idea of upgrading to a new boat. One of the options is a Volvo Penta IPS. If you have never looked at this option, there are a few benefits you should consider. Here are three of those benefits and what you need to know about each one.
Increased Fuel Efficiency
One of the leading benefits to a Volvo Penta IPS upgrade is the increased fuel efficiency. This specific make and model uses 30% less fuel than other boats in the same category. The Penta IPS also has a longer driving range before fuel is needed. The range can extend up to 40% longer than other boats in the category. In addition to these two fuel related benefits, the boat also has less fuel emissions that other boats in the same powerboat category. These benefits will help you reduce fuel costs and allow you to enjoy your day out with fewer refuel stops.
Increased Motor and Propeller Operation
You may not think about your motor or your propeller operation during a boat upgrade, but it does matter. There are several issues that can come up with your motor and propeller that affect the operation of your boat or the environment around you. For example, the propellers may not operate as fast as upgraded models. This sluggish operation can lead to slower movement and strain on the motor. You can also find issues with fumes from the motor and propeller. The Volvo Penta IPS does not have these issues or helps to reduce them greatly.
Increased Comfort
Comfort is something that many people look for when they choose a new upgraded boat. You already know you will be on the boat for longer hours as you enjoy the day with friends and family. You want it to be as comfortable as possible. One of the benefits to the Volvo Penta IPS is the low noise level. It also has reduced vibrations that make the read easier and smoother. The maneuvering of the boat is also easier to handle and gives you more predictability.
