Do you like helicopters, cars, boats, pure luxury, and Mercedes-Benz? Welcome to this blog post about the Arrow460 by Mercedes-Benz Style and Silver Arrows Marine :)
The higher classed vehicles of Mercedes-Benz stands for style, speed, and luxury. These points reflect the Arrow460 – Granturismo aka “Silver Arrow of the Seas” – a 14m motor yacht with 960 HP. The boat is a crossover design for day cruises for up to 10 persons, but it is also possible to sleep aboard. You can get it for 2.5 Mio Euro.
Interior of the Arrow460
Not just the power like an AMG sportscar on the seas; it is also the luxurious interior with S-Class genes.
It’s not Mercedes’ first touch with the yachting world. Since 2007, they are partnering with the legendary U.S. boat brand Cigarette. I have blogged about the Cigarette 50 Marauder and the Mercedes AMG GT-S.
Gorden Wagener, Head of Design at Daimler comments:
“The Cigarette Racing speedboat and our Mercedes-Benz Style luxury yacht ‘ARROW460-Granturismo’ represent a coming together of two design icons. Each of them is hot & cool as their design is both attractive and surprisingly new, making both boats perfect embodiments of emotion and intelligence. The ‘ARROW460-Granturismo’ carries our Mercedes genes throughout. We have transferred an automotive design idiom to a yacht – and this design statement far outside the usual mainstream in the boat industry allows us to create a totally original aesthetic.”
By the way, Gottlieb Daimler delivered a 1.5 HP gasoline engine in 1886 for the Lürssen-built boat REMS.
