IPS
Yachts for Sale

IPS yachts use Volvo Penta’s Inboard Performance System, a modern propulsion technology featuring forward-facing, pod-mounted propellers controlled by joystick steering. This setup improves fuel efficiency, enhances maneuverability, and reduces vibration and noise compared to traditional shaft drives, making docking and tight maneuvers much easier. IPS systems are widely used in luxury motor yachts, with builders like Azimut, Sunseeker, Prestige, Princess, and Fairline offering models equipped with this technology. When considering an IPS yacht, key factors include engine size, cruising range, and maintenance history. They’re ideal for owners seeking better handling, quieter operation, and improved overall comfort.
