The Lamborghini of the Sea
By Christina Bohnstengel
Speed is the theme for this summer’s aqua toys. We reported earlier about the ICAP Leopard sailing yacht breaking the transatlantic speed record, and now, with 41 Super Leggera, captains can zoom up to 100 m.p.h. across the oceans blue. The 41-foot powerboat from Outerlimits Powerboats in Rhode Island, has been compared to a Lamborghini of the sea, complete with a $650,000 price tag. Design features that enhance the aerodynamics of the speedy ship are the carbon fiber deck and epoxy e-glass hull. But just because the sketches were based on a world championship race boat doesn’t mean that luxury comforts were forgotten. Stitched leather and suede adorn the cockpit dash, while a GPS chart plotter, full cabin with shower, and side-by-side stand-up convertible bolsters are also featured on board.
