MODERN TECHNOLOGY is a combination of applied science and good old-fashioned innovation: Identify a problem and then offer a solution (or multiple solutions). There is little doubt that the world of high-tech graces every corner of the marine industry, from faster boats and more powerful electronics to acoustically refined speaker systems for more thump on those all-important bass notes. Kidding aside, it's a great time to experience all the technological solutions that make the overall fishing and boating experience even more enjoyable.
PROPULSION AND ACCESSORIES
MTU The highly successful MTU 12V 2000 M96L, rated at 1,945 hp, has now received a power upgrade to 2,002 hp and is named the MTU 12V 2000 M96X. The engines first debuted in the Viking 68, and the M96X will also be installed in the new Viking 64 (Hull No. 1), as well as other Viking 64s and 68s currently in production. The new engine is also being installed in dozens of custom vessels currently under construction.
Like the earlier MTU 12V 2000 M96L engine, the MTU 12V 2000 M96X has superior engine-operating characteristics, with no smoke on acceleration, extremely quiet operation, and superior acceleration in comparison with competitive 12-cylinder engines available today. The M96X also has an industry-leading power-to-weight ratio, which translates increased horsepower into faster vessel speeds.
With a customer-friendly maintenance schedule and an available 11-year extended warranty, the MTU 12V 2000 M96X is ideal to power any sportboat between 55 and 70 feet.
