Bond-Like 47" Code-X Catamaran Blasts Out of the Water
Andrew Robichaud — June 4, 2009 — Autos
Not even James Bond’s speedboat could match up to Code-X’s Catamaran.
This high-powered yacht is better than its already stunning looks make it seem. The boat can rip across the water on twin formula-1 engines at 80 knots (each engine pumps 710hp...wow), or switch to battery power and run at a leisurely 9 knots.
The battery powered option can power the boat for up to 2 hours and when it dies, the boat can run on back up solar panels (unlimited amount of time).
The Code-X also has touch screen displays and a anchoring system that uses the motors to keep it stationary regardless of wind or water currents.
Mr. Bond wishes he had this boat.
