A sportfish with IPS drives!

Finally a sportfish is created with IPS drives! The new Spencer 43 Express is the first to use Volvo IPS-600s giving it a top speed of 34.5 kts burning only 40 gph and giving it a range of over 500 SM. The only negative is that you loose the fishboxes due to the engines being all of the way aft. What a nice looking engine room though. Due to this configuration, they were able to put in a rather large aft stateroom. Not bad for a 43.
