The 275 displays an organic, integrated aesthetic not seen before in boats of this size. From a windshield that seems to grow from the deck rather than attach to it, to a control pod that features a floating flat screen interface, the craft showcases elegance alongside ease of use. Design innovations in the craft extend to the re-thinking of space and utility. The galley can accommodate multiple layouts while the center walk-through area maximizes interior space. The rear seats provide a secure and comfortable travel experience. When anchored, those same seats can be easily re-oriented to create a spacious lounge area for relaxing, entertaining and enjoying the view. The result is a jetboat that integrates the benefits of maximum functionality and flexibility with a premium luxury experience.
