Strand-Craft Stingray Speedboat


Autoblog:

The '63 Corvette Stingray split-window coupe may not have been quite as aerodynamic as GM would have us believe, but it does remain one of the most iconic designs of all time.

So iconic, in fact, that one shipyard is considering taking it to the water to see if the shape is seaworthy...

...The blueprints call for a carbon-fiber hull and a big block engine with competition prop drives (we see two engines powering the one above).

I can see Timmy Dalton driving one of these in the next Bond flick.

Oops: Reliapundit gently reminds me that the current Bond is Daniel Craig. But of course!
