The flagship of the Coastal Craft line, the 450ips embodies all of the qualities that have made Coastal Craft Yachts famous. The 450ips starts with a commercial quality welded aluminum planeing hull that slices through choppy seas at speeds far exceeding the typical cruiser. Featuring the latest in performance propulsion technology, the 450ips is powered by twin Volvo D6-435 high performance diesel engines equipped with Volvo IPS 600 drives. This innovative drive system utilizes forward facing Duo-props that run parallel to the hull, drawing un-disturbed water from a plat, hydrodynamic hull surface. A joystick control rotates the drives independently allowing effortless control for maneuvering and docking - including the ability to supply thrust directly sideways, eliminating the need for a bow or stern thruster. Volvo's Dynamic Position System offers virtual anchoring and will hold the vessel's position stationary even in a strong wind or in a tidal current. The 450ips offers a top speed of 32 knots and efficient continuous cruising speeds between 8 and 28 knots. Equally impressive is her fuel efficiency of 1 mile per gallon at 27 knots and near 3 miles per gallon at 8 knots.
