Averaging 44.6 knots (51.3 MPH)  during their UIM Cork-Fastnet-Cork record attempt in 2020, and recording a maximum speed of 53 knots (61 MPH). Thunderchild II fuses a twin stepped asymmetrical catamaran hull form with a wave piercing monohull, to create a hybrid design that delivers the rough weather and high speed dynamic transverse stability.

6. Azimut Yacht Verve 42

Azimut Verve 42 is the first 42 foot outboard sport cruiser boat, with an eye-catching and striking design. The Michael-Peters deep-V designed hull incorporates twin athwartships steps and a stern tunnel. The result is directional stability and solid tracking while turning at speed.

Access to the bow seating is easy and safe thanks to the dedicated walkway at cockpit level around the house. The deck and hardtop include carbon fibre and are lightweight. Not only does the Verve brag looks, but it is robust, with CE Classification Type A. Take it on intrepid sea voyages where winds exceed 45 mph and seas can grow to 13 feet and you can cruise with aplomb.

7. Cranchi E26 Classic

By far one of the coolest powerboats in Europe at the moment, the 26-foot Italian mare is a distinct bold styling.

9. Pershing 82

While the Pershing 80 was very successful, its replacement, the new 82, takes Pershing’s famous quality and packages it inside considerably sleeker, more sporting lines. Access to the new low-profile upper deck with its secondary helm position is provided by means of a carbon staircase with an automated hatch. Down below, things are equally high-end, with an array of extraordinarily plush Poltrona Frau furniture. And with a pair of 2,435hp MTU 16V M93 engines coupled to Sea Rex surface drives, this elegant 82-footer is capable of an ocean-munching top end of 45 knots and a cruising range in excess of 300 nautical miles.

10. Itama 75

Itama is an Italian company dedicated solely to the design and production of fast open boats - and those principles remain intact even on the company’s 75-foot flagship. With a relatively narrow beam and long, raked lines, plus a bow that evokes the endless bonnet of an E-Type Jaguar, it looks even faster than its nominal 42-knot top end. Once you check out that vast open-plan cockpit and the radical modern cleanliness of the below decks accommodation (available either in three or four-cabin configuration), you will discover that few boats in the world can match the Itama 75 for outright desirability. Above: Itama seventyfive power running through the open water. Its E-type Jaguaresque looks make it a long-held favourite in the motoryacht segment. Image via YachtWorld/Itama.
