VOLVO PENTA Bow Thruster
This Volvo Penta bow thruster, seen here on our test boat, is normally an $11,650 option. But if you power your boat with Volvo Penta engines, the bow thruster is included. And while my test boat handled great in close quarters with the IPS drives, having the bow thruster available as a backup for those tight squeezes or to battle a big wind or current was a great comfort.

Raymarine C80
Our Carver 42 Super Sport was equipped with the Raymarine C80 multifunction navigation system. The 8.4-inch, sunlight-viewable display let me view chart, radar, and depth data, as well as plot and monitor a course, all at once without taking up the space of larger displays. www.raymarine.com.
