The open-air event for high-end yachts and boats will take place from May 9 to 12 in Viareggio, Italy. Located on the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea, this Tuscan port city will allow the first vessel built by ABT Sportsline to be experienced in its natural element. The STRIDER 11 ABT will be shown at the booth of boat builder SACS (N09 to N10). The SPORT MASTER project was produced in cooperation with SACS. The northern Italian manufacturer for RIB brand boats will also be exhibiting its Rebel 40 model at the Rendez-Vous.
The STRIDER 11 ABT SPORT MASTER LIMITED EDITION has an impressive 800 HP (588 kW). This was made possible by the ABT Power performance upgrade. With the help of the engine control unit ABT ENGINE CONTROL (AEC) the engineers were able to achieve a gain of 60 HP. With a length of eleven meters and a weight of 4.5 tons, the boat is capable of a speed over 50 knots (around 93 km/h). The ABT Carbon Look Kit was installed to add a suitable styling. The ABT Individual department further refined the interior with the same design philosophy seen in cars built by the Bavarian tuner. The combination of excellent design and technology is what makes the STRIDER 11 ABT SPORT MASTER so special. It is a limited edition, with just ten examples planned for production.
ABT Sportsline has set up an email address specifically for interested customers: sacs@abt-sportsline.de. Buyers of this unique vessel can rest assured that every single detail represents style, performance, sports, joie de vivre and speed.
