Every detail of this magnificent model has been painstakingly restored to its former glory, from the rich, red-painted hood and fin to the intricate, hand-stitched, red leather seat in the cockpit. The dashboard boasts a stunning, two-tone wood panel, adorned with realistic, stainless steel gauges, while the V12 engine compartment is home to two large, stainless steel exhausts, adding a touch of rugged power to this sleek, sophisticated model. The rudder, prop shafts, and propeller are all crafted from shiny, stainless steel, adding a touch of glamour to this already-breathtaking model.

With its rich history and impeccable attention to detail, this model is a true masterpiece that will leave you breathless.

The Ferrari Hydroplane's rich history is a testament to the power of innovation and determination. In 1953, Achille Castoldi commissioned Cantieri Timossi to build a 800kg class three-point hydroplane hull, dubbed Arno XI. He then turned to Scuderia Ferrari to power his creation, and the result was nothing short of phenomenal. On the morning of October 15, 1953, Castoldi smashed the 800 kg class speed record with an average "flying kilometer" two-way speed of 150.49 miles per hour, a feat that would secure his place in the annals of history.

Today, this magnificent model serves as a tribute to that achievement, and to the enduring legacy of Ferrari's ingenuity and craftsmanship. With its sleek lines, rich wood tones, and meticulous attention to detail, this Ferrari Hydroplane is a true masterpiece that will captivate anyone who lays eyes on it. Whether you're looking for a statement piece for your office or home, or a unique gift for the discerning collector, this stunning model is sure to impress.

In a world where mass-produced, cookie-cutter decorations are the norm, this Ferrari Hydroplane stands out as a true work of art. Handcrafted from the finest materials and painstakingly detailed, this model is a testament to the power of human ingenuity and creativity. With its rich history, stunning craftsmanship, and sheer beauty, this Ferrari Hydroplane is a true masterpiece that will be cherished for generations to come.
