Fairline Targa 38 available with Volvo D4s

Fairline are now offering their popular Targa 38 with a smaller engine option, putting the base price of the boat at £175,000 ex VAT.

The company say: "At the time of her launch in 2006, she was capable of a top speed of 36 knots, but some customers were seeking greater speeds and performance on the water.

"In response to these demands, Fairline offered the new Volvo Penta D6-370 EVC diesel engines as an option at the end of 2007.

"This resulted in this stylish, elegant sports cruiser now effortlessly reaching speeds of 42 knots - the fastest Fairline ever.

"By contrast, some people simply aspire to own a Fairline for its comfort, style and luxury detailing and have no need to invest in the bigger - and consequentially more expensive, engine options.

"In response to these customers' wishes, Fairline recently introduced a lower-engine option, D4-260 EVC diesel, to allow those on a smaller budget access to this luxury brand."

Last month Fairline won The Queen's Award for Enterprise 2008 in the International Trade category.
