MJM 40z Debut

Sometimes you just want to look at a pretty boat - like the new MJM 40z from J/Boats co-founder Bob Johnstone.

Beneath the pretty exterior is some real innovation. Forward-facing Volvo IPS drives with twin counter-rotating props keep vibration and engine noise to a minimum - just 75 decibels in the cockpit while cruising at 25 kts. Fuel economy was 17 gph at 25 kts, and that was with 10 guests onboard.

I'll leave the sales pitch there for now and let the picture do the talking. More info at http://www.mjmyachts.com/.
