XSR48 Superboat Receives International Design and Innovation Award

This ride is not for the shallow of pocket, those pockets had better be deep and full of Euros. As a matter of fact you had best have a trunk full because this high powered surfboard is going to set you back $1.9 mil (dollars). For some of us that’s pocket change for others just a dream.

If you have an aversion to Gs,  the force that’s generated against your body when you’re strapped to the nose cone of a Japanese bullet train traveling at 170mph, don’t board this baby.   With the potential to produce 2000hp, the XSR48 Super Boat can glide at speeds upwards to and exceeding 100mph.  Hauling a ZF Trimax surface-drive propulsion system bolted to a ZF two-speed transmission, the XSR48 is the world’s fastest diesel powered…. B o a t.

This cutting-edge, technologically advanced, ultra intelligent design consumed more than 55,000 man-hours in research and development. Which means it is well put together.

Now imagine the XSR48′S potentially 2000hp motor mated to an HAFC (Hydro Assist Fule Cell) in conjunction with a PICC (Pre-Ignition Catalytic Converter). Theoretically the gas mileage would be doubled, the exhaust emissions would drop significantly, and the horse power should greatly increase. You also can install the HAFC and the PICC in your own Super Boat.
