Targa 44 was introduced in 2007. At the same time the Targa 44 with the revolutionary Rolls Royce Water Jets FF 340 system was introduced - an instant success. The RR Jets is working perfectly together with the well-balanced hull of the Targa 44. After thoroughly being tested, the Targa 44 won the prestigious Motorboat of the Year Award in 2009. The motivation of the jury was as overwhelmingly positive as in 2005:
"If ever a boat deserved its billing as the "4x4 of the sea" then this is it. On test the new FF 340 water jets -powered Targa 44 delivered 38 knots into a Force 6 with 15 people on board - more than enough to convince us that this was not only the clear winner of our Wheelhouse & Walkaround award but our favorite 4x4 by far."
