The Rampage Sport Fishing Yachts display at the 2009 Miami International Boat Show featured the new 34 IPS plus a unique IPS simulator. The video simulator allowed show goers to manuver a boat into a slip using the joy stick control.

Ever wonder how a fully rigged, 25 ton boat gets from the water to the convention center in Miami Beach? Boats are brought to a landing, picked out of the water by a huge crane, placed on a trailer and hauled to the convention center. This year seven boats including the new Rampage 34 IPS made the trip to and from the water.
