While the Targa 41 is a serious, heavy-duty machine, it breaks the stereotype of being a sluggish boat. Fitted with twin Volvo Penta D6440 horsepower stern drives, this boat can achieve a top speed exceeding 40 knots. Alternatively, users can opt for IPS650s, equipped with swivelling pods for easier manoeuvring using the joystick, particularly useful during berthing.
In the world of Targa, the features offered by the Targa 41 are revolutionary. Despite its solid and durable build, the boat has been engineered for impressive speed and agility. The design updates showcase a well-judged balance of modernisation without losing the quintessential Targa essence.
