New high-tech inventions never stop to impress us. The new Mono Marine Edition car is a single-seater racing car that can ride onboard the world’s finest vessels. This time this is not just another water toy to add to a superyacht’s collection. The main idea of this car is to explore the land. Imagine how amazing this could be to cruise on a superyacht around some stunning islands, then switch to a supercar to explore vibrant life onshore. The Briggs Automotive Company’s (BAC) official product Mono is built to order. What makes the Mono Marine Edition so exceptional is the special coating that takes away the salt, a rush-resistant finish and an environmental control container featuring humidity and temperature controls for stowing on board.
This a-third-of-aweight-of-Ferrari supercar is powered by the same engine as the 2016 model of Mono, 305bhp 2.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine. Carbon-fibre crane arm helps support the car on and off any superyacht, as well as chassis’s lifting points provide easy loading and unloading.
BAC co-founder and Mono Marine Edition designer Ian Briggs mentioned in the interview with CNN Sport: “It’s not the case of needing transport when you get to lands, as people can ring for a limousine and go around in Rolls Roys, but more about having toy readily available for you”. There are lots of people with big car collections that also happen to have yachts as well, and for whatever reason, up until now, nobody’s ever really connected them together”.
The Mono Marine Edition supercar is customisable inside and out. The price of it is just around $800,000, however, the actual value to you can be a lot more than a few thousand dollars. According to Briggs this could be a filling-the-gap in the market for superyacht toys.
