The Legacy 42 by Tartan IPS (45′ LOA, 14′ 1″ beam) pairs the latest drive systems with a proven Mark Ellis-designed hull and advanced marine composites, all packaged in a traditional motor yacht. The result is a yacht that gives her crew maximum comfort underway providing a stable platform. Even the most devoted boaters occasionally wish for more speed from their boats, maybe a little less noise and certainly better fuel economy.
And backing down into a tight slip in a crowded marina on a windy day, who hasn’t wished for an edge in the maneuverability department? Now you can expect this and more with the car-like handling of the Legacy 42 IPS.
The Volvo Penta 450 IPS drives include twin Volvo diesel engines and steerable pods, twin counter-rotating, forward-facing propellers, and electronic steering, shift and throttle; the joystick control makes it easy to maneuver. These components can deliver a top speed of 30 knots, and a cruising speed of 28.5 knots with a range of 601 nm.
