A Ferrari in any form is simply alluring and when you put the Scarlet red with the Prancing Horses onto the blue waters, it just becomes all the more seductive with speed. This is the 1:10 scale remote-controlled hydroplane boat modeled after the Ferrari Arno XI. One might find the styling on the boat as a tad bit Retro as it is indeed a Ferrari that raced in the 40’s and the 50’s. The design and even the interiors of this 1:10 scale model have been crafted to replicate the good old times. This is more a replica that is exactly in line with the original rather than a simple imitation.

This precise and perfect remote controlled toy can go pretty fast on water and can be controlled from a distance of up to 500 meters away. It can hit top speed of 20 mph and that is pretty cool for anything that you just want to have fun with. Many modern electric cars struggle to hit the speed consistently! Over 200 hours of painstaking effort is involved in its construction, including sanding, staining, and finishing.

This requires 8 batteries AA in the remote to operate and the onboard battery provides 30 minutes of charge. Available at a price of $2000, this would make a great present come Christmas for any racing/Ferrari enthusiast.
