Revolver R42, Loaded and ready to Go

The Revolver 42 is one of those rare items that seldom come to the market but when they do they define a new category, the standard by which all others will be measured from there on.

It’s difficult to describe something really new. We could try to explain considering her hard features. For example consider the hard top which allows you to enjoy either a coupe’ or an open boat. Or the electric operated swimming platform which folds in the aft, and makes it easier to dock and pilot the boat. Not to mention the Italian style interiors with the open space concept for the first time on a boat. To finish with the simple, complete, functional “aero” cockpit, a joy to steer, or we should say to ride!

But probably its easier to explain if you consider her personality. Her strength will be revealed with impressive accelerations, when more than 1300 hp will rage out her rear pipes and, despite the amortized seats, you will have to call for all of your braveness to keep the full throttle. Close your eyes and imagine her long forefront cutting the waves, designing either large or sharp edges always maintaining a steady line, on tracks.

Her complacency is addictive. She adapts the temperature, humidity and sun insulation at your wish. Once you experience that feeling of well-being she offers, regardless of external weather conditions, it’s difficult to accept other compromises. And if you want to feel the wind blowing in your hair, she rapidly opens like a convertible boat. The upper part of the hard-top, just like the rear & lateral windows are retractable.

Remember the sin of pride. You can try to justify yourself by saying that it’s difficult not to be proud of such an iconic beauty, but you will certainly be condemned by all those envious people out there. Pride or envy… hard choice!

I can only say this boat has a soul. She can relate to you as a person. She is gentle, aggressive, cozy, fascinating. She will conquer you. Be careful.
