New England Boat & Motor Co. aims to revive a more stately seafaring era

There’s more than a couple things that were better in the 1920s, and most of them had to do with design. Cars, suits, motorcycles, hats, pontoon planes, dames. About the only thing that wasn’t better was the technology and the dancing (have you seen how they danced in the 20’s?). If I had my druthers, […]

The Marion Hyper-Sub here for all your above water/below water mission needs

I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Not only am I a top-tier writer for LIAS, the greatest online magazine in the history of the printed word, but I’m also a corporate mercenary. I’m in the assassination game and my skills as an international man of mystery fetch top dollar. My last […]

The electric engines […]

Perfect motivation for becoming obscenely rich

Holy Crappola, this thing is sweet. Unbelievable, really. I love the complete rethink of the yacht shape itself — this is design carried to its terminal best. Created as a collaboration between french luxury brand Hermès and Monaco-based yacht maker Wally (who make some of the most progressive boats and yachts in the world), the WHY […]


  Wow, this thing is bad ass. The XSR48 calls itself the world’s first superboat, and it’s hard to dispute the claim from what it’s boasting. With no less than a ridiculous 1600hp blasting from two bi-turbo engines, they claim it’s the fastest production diesel boat in the world.
