Ferrari Hypersail
Ferrari's Arno XI hydroplane set a world water speed record on Lake Iseo in 1953, and the brand has been circling a proper return to the water ever since. The Hypersail is it, revealed at Milan Design Week and built to race the ocean at the same endurance scale as Le Mans. The 100-foot carbon monohull spans a 65-foot beam with a 131-foot mast, lifting clear of the water on three foil contact points, two lateral T-foils, a rudder foil, and a canting keel foil, with flight control software derived directly from Ferrari's active road car suspension systems, adjusting hundreds of times per second to hold the hull level. There is no combustion engine aboard; roughly 1,076 square feet of walkable solar panels integrated into the deck and topsides generate up to 20 kW, with wind and kinetic recovery covering the rest, powering everything from foil hydraulics to navigation. Naval architect Guillaume Verdier designed the hull in Pisa, finished in Grigio Hypersail carbon gray and Giallo Fly yellow, the latter tracing back to Ferrari F1 driver Luigi Musso's helmet and the 275 GTB in 1964.
