Continuing the brands’ long-running partnership is the upcoming Pirelli x Tecnorib 1900 Boat, which will take its official bow at this year’s Cannes Yachting Festival. The vessel may have an inflatable tube covered with genuine tire tread, but it’s otherwise a standard — if luxurious — RIB (rigid inflatable boat), measuring 61 feet long and just over 16 feet wide. It’s powered by twin 800 hp engines and surface-piercing propellers, generating a top speed of about 52 mph, though the recommended cruising speed is closer to 35 mph. Up top is a carbon fiber roof, and below deck are two cabins, two bathrooms and a central living area.
