The Miami Boat Show is underway, flooding South Florida with the finest watercrafts in the world. To add to the event’s extravagance, Mercedes-AMG and Cigarette Racing took this opportunity to unveil the new Cigarette Racing 50 Marauder GT S Concept, which is based on the new Mercedes-AMG GT S sports car.
According to a press release issued Feb. 12, this one-0f-a-kind concept is the most powerful production twin engine performance boat currently available. The pair of Mercury Racing 1,550 hp V8 engines are rigged in a Solarbeam Yellow-finished engine room. Because of the boat’s lightweight construction and the aforementioned power, it can achieve an estimated top speed of more than 135 mph. Of course, they couldn’t have the boat reach the same top speed as the Mercedes-AMG GT S, which is a blistering 193 mph. In comparison to the Mercedes-AMG GT S’ price of $129,900, the boat will cost $1.2 million.
“We are thrilled to partner with the Mercedes-Benz high-performance brand again this year to design our fastest powerboat yet,” said Skip Braver, President and CEO of Cigarette Racing, in the press release. “Featuring the all new AMG-inspired Mercury racing engine, the 50 Marauder GT S Concept embodies our brand’s commitment to innovation and craftsmanship.”

Mirroring the Mercedes-AMG GT S, the interior of the boat is handcrafted with marine-grade black Alcantara accents, while the exterior has a gloss black gel coat hull with matte black and Solarbeam Yellow accents.
The boat can currently be seen at the Miami Boat Show. If you are at the event, be sure to stop by the duPont REGISTRY tent to pick up our latest magazine.
