IPS Technology

One test drive and you'll know - it's IPS™ or bust.

Faster, higher, smoother, drier - and that's just a start.

Lund IPS™ has become the most copied hull design in boat building – and for good reason. But, building a genuine IPS™ hull requires costly technology and unique insights into the interplay of aluminum and hull dynamics. A flat spot on the bottom of the hull isn’t IPS™ technology and doesn’t deliver IPS™ advantages. Lund IPS is the perfect integration and optimization of the power strake, the reverse chine, and the footprint.

How these three components work together creates incredible IPS™ performance that is greater than the sum of its parts:

  • More MPH
  • Faster hole shots
  • Better planing at slow, slow speeds
  • Better overall boat control
  • Exceptional stability, especially in turns
  • Minimal motor strain for increased efficiency and lower fuel consumption
  • Easier handling of big, high-HP motors
  • A drier, smoother ride with less spray
  • Easier backtrolling – In fact, you’ll be able to position your boat with more precision and present your bait with more accuracy, so you can get on fish and stay on fish
Original IPS™ – built with a wider, longer central power strake – feeds the propeller solid, non-turbulent water for unmatched performance.
IPS™ 2 also features the central power strake, but also has a deeper V and additional strakes to help drive down spray and create a smoother, drier ride with a flatter wake.

Tom Backer on IPS™

The ride and performance of my 2025 IFS/LE is second to none. The IPS2 Hull creates a boating experience that is simply amazing. When you combine the IPS2 feature with the set-back console design, it creates the driest, smoothest ride of any boat on the market.
