Stay steady with the touch of a button. Volvo Penta’s Dynamic Positioning System (DPS) uses advanced software to keep your boat’s position and heading perfectly steady, even in wind and currents. It’s easier than ever to activate via joystick integration, opening you up to seamless control during docking, waiting, or fueling. Sometimes, standing still is exactly what the moment calls for.
