Retractable Carbon Fiber Superboats

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Superfly GT 42 Offers Sporty Performance & Luxury Comfort

— October 6, 2017 — Autos
Sweden-based company Flying Flipper has unveiled an extraordinarily extravagant superboat, dubbed the Superfly GT 42, that is designed to offer a combination of rip-roaring sport performance as well as comforting luxury in one package.

This particular superboat's top speed is in the region of 120 km/h, which is aided by lightweight carbon fiber construction. What's more, this superboat also comes with a retractable roof that completes its sporty look and feel. But when the boat's owners tire of racing and speeding around, they can kick back in the air-conditioned cabin, which comes equipped with a spacious double bed. The boat also has a well-equipped kitchen for whipping up dinner and drinks.

Blending sporty performance and luxury, this luxury superboat offers the best of both worlds, and is designed for the well-monied yacht owner who wants to have their cake and eat it too.
