Just watched a youtube video by boattest.com. it was a review of a tiara center console powered by twin volvo 527 HP outboards. 38 foot boat. The cool thing is they offer dual props. Ive wondered for years why this hasnt happened yet. Also you can pilot the boat with a joystick....like while your cruising.....not just for docking.

Re: New Volvo outboards
They're you go. Finally some Volvo tech into the 7 Marine power house. It will slow them down but the other advantages should help a bunch. They are 90k each before so now I'm sure close to 100k. Not sure the go fast guys will want a ugly bronze looking prop on there million dollar boat. Hopefully Volvo will get the service network side of it fixed. Very promising. Plus they are built 1.5 hours from me.

Great post TR.
Probably one of the nicest outboards I’ve seen marrying up 7 power & technology with VP duoprop innovation.
She did a nice job docking too —although no fenders hanging makes me cringe.
It does illustrate how precise the auto docking feature is.
The 6.2 is an awesome machine....especially with that supercharger.

You know so I can go spend 15 grand and top out at 55mph instead of 50 lol. The R series boats are pigs.
