Absolute Yachts and Volvo Penta build on their long-term relationship by offering Assisted Docking technology across the entire Absolute line. Absolute represents the first and only shipyard in the world to offer Assisted Docking across its entire range of yachts.

“Our collaboration with Absolute Yachts is an opportunity to test the Assisted Docking system on the entire range of Volvo Penta IPS-powered boats, in line with our Easy Boating philosophy. The goal is to add value to both the shipyard and the end user, by creating a truly integrated system from the propeller through to transmission and throttles” says Andrea Piccione, head of marine sales for Volvo Penta.

The Assisted Docking system features innovative technology that interprets and automates the captain’s intentions, making docking easier and safer than ever, regardless of boater’s experience or boating conditions. A special world premiere of the Absolute 48 Coupe featuring Assisted Docking will take place in Varazze, Italy, on August 27 – 29.
