Performance and Design

The 40 SC is the result of collaboration between the Italian Naval Architectural firm of Nuvolari-Lenard and American yacht manufacturer Marquis Yachts. This yacht combines an open design that looks stunning and is built to perfection while providing thrilling performance. Built around Volvo's innovative IPS propulsion system, the Marquis 40 SC delivers an exhilarating ride at speeds expected to exceed 40 mph. The addition of the IPS Joystick allows for confident maneuvering in tight quarters and during docking.

The open-air salon and adjoining cockpit are designed for maximum access to the yacht's ocean side environment. The salon entrance doors open to create one large environment combining the salon with the cockpit. The innovative transom lounge glides aft with a push of a button to create more than 60 square feet of cockpit space. The salon features quality treatments such as exotic African Zebrano hardwood cabinetry with high gloss lacquered trim, wooden cabin sole, and designer-selected fixtures and appointments. The interior of the Marquis 40 SC compares in materials, style, fixtures, and quality to the interiors of mega and super yachts that are cruising the world.
