The exciting 40' Marquis HT is one of the first boats designed to take full advantage of the space-saving qualities of the Volvo-Penta IPS drive. The huge 60-sq.ft. cockpit with teak sole (optional) flows past a bi-folding door into the flush salon (inlaid hardwood) to create one huge entertaining area. No step up! Just one, large flowing deck which will keep cocktail parties mingling instead of breaking into two groups which always happens when the bridge deck is raised to accommodate the inboard engines. The Volvo-Penta IPS diesels are in the engine room below the cockpit. The second thing the IPS drives allow is a "VIP Stateroom" in addition to the Master in the bow.
Engine options range from the Volvo-Penta D6 IPS 400 with 310 hp, to the Volvo Penta D6 IPS 600 rated at 435 hp. Both are diesels and the company says that the boat is designed to exceed 40 mph with the big power. The beam is 13'11", the draft is 43" and the displacement is 28,000 lbs. Heading the list of noteworthy standard equipment is the "joystick" which makes docking so simple even a caveman could do it. The boat also comes with a Kohler 10kw generator, Maxwell 800 Windlass with 150' of 3/8th" chain, double-welded bow rail stanchions with aluminum backing plates, windshield defoggers, red night vision overhead light at the helm.
