For lovers of fast powerboats comes a splendid new ‘toy’: the Brabus Shadow 300 Edition One. A 25-foot, i.e., 8-meter boat that is promising, luxurious, and powered by a Mercury Racing V8 capable of taking it to the insane speed of 50 knots thanks to its 300 horsepower. At Motor Boats No.26 read our interview with Brabus CEO Constantin Buschmann .
First chance to see him live at an event open to the public? The Cannes Boat Show 2022.
A decidedly impressive sports boat with remarkable performance that combines design and performance with agility and maneuverability. All, transportable via trolley. In short, unique in its class and size range.
In addition to performance, in the full style of the brand, the Brabus Shadow 300 also featuresimpeccable attention to ergonomics and detail. Everything in the dashboard is optimized to make navigation as pleasant and safe as possible, whatever the speed. This is seen from the wheelhouse with integrated ‘steering wheel’ controls, from the multifunction Simrad display in the new integrated Smart-plotter, completely custom for the model. Brabus doesn’t stop there, also offering respectable options, such as wireless chargers, a high-quality JL signature sound system, and full-on racing-style seating.
As for the cockpit, the Brabus Shadow 300 has other top elements. Thanks to the attention to detail already seen in the dashboard, the solutions applied to the exterior also optimize space. This applies without, of course, neglecting the comfort required in a boat aiming at the high end of the market. In fact, there are several particularly large lockers dedicated to all kinds of sports equipment, support poles for water skiing, and compartments under the seats to hide a refrigerator and sink (optional). In the bow, however, we find a full-beam sunbed while, below deck, a forward cabin complete with double berth, toilet and sink.
Overall, the Brabus Shadow 300 Edition One is definitely an 8-foot, 25-foot boat that knows how to make itself envied. Despite its small size with this Brabus of the Sea you will never go unnoticed, either at full speed or when stopped in the roadstead.
