The Shannon 40’ SRD is available as with a flybridge or as an express, and is the solution for powerboat owners seeking to be environmentally conscientious and reduce their carbon footprint.
With its patented hull design, the Shannon 40’ SRD is able to provide exceptional fuel economy. At 10 knots, the Shannon 40’ SRD obtains almost 2 miles per gallon. And at 15 knots, the Shannon 40’ SRD provides over 1.6 miles per gallon. The fuel efficiency of the Shannon 40’ SRD translates into 60% less fuel burned, increased range and a significant reduction in pollution. And the Shannon 40’ SRD can easily reach speeds of 25 knots or greater depending on engine horsepower.
The SRD hull shape is perfect for the latest engine pod systems like the Cummins/MerCruiser Diesel Zeus system or the Volvo IPS. Conventional propeller drives are also available in either single or twin engine configuration – and for anyone interested in innovation, Walt has some ideas about a triple engine configuration.
