The propulsion system consists of two Mercury Racing 500R V8 outboard engines, which together deliver 1,000 hp. This enables the boat to reach a top speed of 111 kilometres per hour, or sixty knots. The throttle response is immediate and the acceleration is remarkable for a boat of this size.
The Cross Cabin concept means that the helm is situated in an enclosed cabin, whilst the cockpit and aft deck remain open. The distinctive wing doors provide access to the forward cabin, which contains two berths. The optional aft deck package adds a further two berths.
On board are two 16-inch Simrad screens, a HALO 20+ radar, a FLIR night-vision system with all-round view and a bow thruster with joystick control. This equipment makes manoeuvring in busy harbours easier than one might expect given the vessel’s power.
The interior is finished in the BRABUS Masterpiece style, featuring leather, carbon fibre and adjustable layouts. The boat weighs 5,400 kilograms without engines or optional equipment, and has an 80-litre drinking water tank on board.
