Strand Craft is excited to announce their new partnership with Dutch Shipyard as well as Mulder Design. Strand Craft has chosen Dutch Shipyard in The Netherlands as the exclusive builder of their V8 powered Wet Rod™ luxury watercraft for mega yachts, with bespoke Mulder Design responsible for the naval architecture. The prestigious Dutch craftsmanship assures the Wet Rod’s are built with the highest possible luxury amenities, reliability, as well as quality.
The Strand Craft V8 Wet Rod™ luxury watercraft for superyachts measures 4.9 meters LOA, and despite its vast length the Strand Craft V8 Wet Rod™ is super quick thanks to its lightweight construction and powerful 370 HP 4.2 liter V8 TDI engine from Volkswagen Marine, capable of propelling the luxury jet ski up to a top speed over 120 km/hour (80 mph). A V8 gasoline engine at 330 hp is standard, and the Wet Rod™ also comes standard with a high performance water jet pump for pure, powerful enjoyment.
Aimed at those who are not afraid to splash the cash, this luxury jet ski also boasts a cooler for champagne and other beverages, which is stored under the seat, while larger items such as luggage, snorkeling and diving equipment are stored in a waterproof luggage box in the front. Of course you do have the ability to fully customize the Wet Rod™ with optional extras including: natural wood or carbon fiber inlays, a custom paint job, a custom trailer, an iPhone/iPad™ dock, GPS navigation and also a premium sound system.
The V8 powered Wet Rod™ is arguably the Rolls Royce™ of the jet-ski world, and with prices starting at 45,000 Euro, it is definitely a perfect toy to match a supercar and yacht. It is time for you to explore your inner James Bond and experience the excitement of enjoying a Wet Rod™ in the world’s most beautiful and exciting places.
