Volvo Penta’s Forward Drive has made it possible to turn almost any family bowrider or runabout into a surfboat, because it places the propellers underneath the hull, safely out of harm’s way. Now the Forward drive will be better suited for saltwater duty, thanks to the OceanX coating. Where: Convention Center Booth: 1203-1204 volvopenta.com Courtesy Volvo Penta
