Drawing inspiration from the highly anticipated
Mercedes-AMG Project One hypercar, the 515 Project One performance boat is the
ninth special edition model of its kind to be created by the two companies.
It measures 15.6 m in length and has an
increased beam of 2.9 m that allows for 6 passengers to be seated
comfortably. Its deck is constructed completely from carbon fiber, while the
air intakes, which are over 2.1 m long and 35 cm wide,
weigh just 2 kg.
The Cigarette Racing Team 515 Project One is powered
by a pair of Mercury Racing quad cam 4 valve engines and M8 stern drives,
producing as much as 3,100 HP. Like with a Dodge Hellcat, the 515 will unlock
more performance via key fob.
For example, the Race Key fob unlocks up to 1,550
HP, requiring race fuel, whereas the Pleasure key fob can operate the boat at
1,350 HP with 91 octane fuel.
As for the livery, it’s the same distinctive matte
black and silver paint that can be found on the road-going Project One, minus
the colorful wavy stripes.
