The famous German tuner has revisited two of the best inflatable boats for the Bicocca house, the 42 and 50 made by Sacs Tecnorib. Very fast and well customized both externally and in the cabin below deck
Mansory Design & Holding, a tuning company founded in 1989 by the German entrepreneur of Iranian origin Kourosh Mansory, is famous among enthusiasts for its tuning that combines luxury and extreme performance. The list of sports cars to which it dedicates its attention is very long, considering that it deals with every premium brand from Aston Martin to Tesla (in alphabetical order) passing through Italian manufacturers. The news is the debut in fast boating in collaboration with Pirelliwhich for 20 years has entrusted Sacs Tecnorib with the task of continuing the great history of inflatable boats. The models that received Mansory’s “treatment” are the 42 and 50, transformed into Special Edition. They are part of the Speedboats collection, created for Pirelli by Mannerfelt Design Team: boats designed, with an innovative design that enhances the open spaces without compromising the comfort of the internal cabins so as to offer a unique and problem-free sailing experience. Externally they show the sporting soul of walkarounds (the hulls that allow you to “walk around” the steering console thanks to large and comfortable side decks) with powerful outboard engines.
THE PIRELLI 50

15.20 meters long and 4.70 meters wide, the Pirelli 50 is the flagship of the collection. The bow, marked by the Cinturato tread Blue Full Wetopens into a sitting room with two sofas and a large sundeck while the refined interiors combine style and functionality. Mansory has introduced – according to his script – a lot of exposed carbon, which is found at the level of the wheelhouse, the spoiler, the cockpit, up to the air intakes and speakers. Other interventions were on the steering wheel, on the cab roof, on the graphics and colors of the custom-style exterior. An added touch of the tuner is the folding table – also in carbon – between the stern seats. If in the original version the recommended propulsion is the classic double Mercury 600 hp engine, in the one proposed by Mansory they “exaggerate” with the addition of a third V12 of the same power, to have out of the ordinary performance. The 60 knots of speed – i.e. approximately 110 km/h – are absolutely within reach.

The Special Edition curated by Mansory offers superior performance to the original presented in 2021. Even then, that boat had surprising acceleration, thanks to the high-performance geometry of the hull which gives the boat constant stability from when it begins to plan at around 12 knots, up to the maximum speed of 65 knots – around 120 km/h – thanks to the triple Mercury 500R engines for a total of 1,500 HP. The boat measures 13.25 meters in length by 4.30 meters in width and can also be powered by inboard engines if desired. Again, carbon fiber is a constant presence appearing on the knobs and joystick in the cabin, the hard top spoiler, the row of integrated Hella spotlights, the air vents and other details. The best Mansory treatment? The special “starry sky” effect, a hallmark of many vehicles transformed by Mansory. But also the customized waterproof leather upholstery is remarkable.
