Videos World first superboat 175 km/h topspeed whit petrol engines

[Zafiro]

The XSR48, produced by British-based XSMG Marine, is capable of speeds in excess of 100 mph with real race boat handling. But style has not been sacrificed for speed. The XSR48 combines the DNA and high performance of a supercar with superyacht styling to create the world's first true superboat.

Developed to suit the tastes and the pockets of the world's growing numbers of ultra rich individuals, the XSR48 comes with a price tag of around £1 million. And the boat will be exclusive too, with only 100 to be produced.

Wow, that's very fast!!! I've been quite a few times on this crew transportation vessel seen here in Malaysia (The manufacturer presented it there for the local police forces). It has 2x450 hp diesel engines and the top speed is >35 knots (~65 km/h). That already feels very fast so I can only imagine how it's like to go over 90 knots...
