Porsche Design Studios is bringing some Stuttgart style to the boating business with its first-ever seacraft, the 28-foot-long high-speed cruiser is a collaboration with Florida-based upstart Fearless Yachts.
“We reached out and said, ‘You have a blank canvas,’” says Fearless CEO Jeffrey Binder, and the German creatives set about designing a luxury racer that could dominate what they dubbed the “aquabahn.”
Fearless Yachts brings a sophisticated difference to the marketplace by launching the ultra highend boats and yachts that blend the best of performance, style, and design. Together, FearlessYachts and Porsche Design Studio combine the style and performance of both the marine and automotive disciplines in order to establish a luxury brand for the boating industry.
For the boating enthusiast, Fearless Yachts delivers performance that is unmatched from concept to construction. “We are combining this discipline with our passion for excellence in order to offer access to an unprecedented design and lifestyle for today’s modern explorer,” said Jeffrey Binder, CEO Fearless Yachts

The boat boasts a fiberglass hull with the sleek curves and lean silhouette of a European coupe, and its “unitized,” or seamless, construction does away with unsightly rivets that might slow it down.
There’s also a 525-horsepower Viper engine that helps the craft reach a top speed of 80 mph, which may not break any world records but will make you grateful for the Latham precision steering controls.
Should 28 feet (and room for five) prove insufficient for your entourage, Fearless Yachts will also launch a collection of boats and yachts over the next three years at the Miami and Monaco boat shows: 44 foot – 2008, 68 foot – 2008, 125 foot – 2009, 150 foot – 2010.
