XSR48 Heads To Monaco To Tempt Buyers

The sleek little number shown here is the prototype XSR48 from XSMG Marine which will be heading to Monaco this month to give potential owners a look at the boat. The 48-foot boat is said to be the world's fastest diesel production boat. The boat will be put through a series of world record attempts to be conducted this year. The XSR48 has a Kevlar/carbon-fibre monocoque hull and twin diesel Isotta Fraschini engines and can hit speeds in excess of 100 mph. The XSR48 is expected to sell for around £1 million and there will only be 100 to be produced.

Lusso magazine featured the XSR48 on the cover of their latest edition, it sounds very cool:
