Available for auction is a handcrafted wooden model hydroplane, recreated following the imagery of the iconic Ferrari Arno XI. The seller states Its flawless exterior boasts a smooth finish, skillfully sealed with a protective varnish and micro-sanded. The model features brass and stainless-steel fittings throughout. In addition, the seat is upholstered with real leather. Note: This item is being relisted as the initial transactional was never completed to no fault of the seller or buyer. 
Steeped in history, the Arno XI hydroplane stands as the only Ferrari-powered hydroplane ever constructed. Born from the creative minds of Achille Castoldi and the expertise of legendary drivers Alberto Ascari and Luigi Villoresi in the early 1950s, this masterpiece showcases its Ferrari DNA with its distinctive red coloring. However, its true marvel lies beneath the surface, where a roaring 600 HP V12 engine propels it over the water, achieving a remarkable record speed of 241.708 km/h, or just over 150mph. This astonishing feat was accomplished on the waters of Lake Iseo in 1953, solidifying its place in history by setting an unbeaten record in the 800-kg category.
With dimensions of 21" x 15" x 9" inches, this handcrafted model captures the essence of the Arno XI, making it a remarkable addition to any collection or a standout for enthusiasts. The buyer is responsible for shipping, shipping insurance, handling, and transactional fees.

To Badman............The boat that was listed as 36" is this boat. PCM made a mistake on the dimensions and the buyer didn't take it. They felt it was their error so they relisted it.
Bid in the amount of $200
Your current listing states that the dimensions are 21"x15"x9", and your listing that ended 1-2-24, states the dimensions as
36"x15"x9". Your listing that ended 12-11-23, listed a boat with dimensions of 21"x9"x9". Are these three different boats or
are some of the dimensions incorrect?
To farcar.....I apoligize. I thought you were asking about the Porsche hood. It cost %0$ or less to ship anywhere in the states.
The Boat weighs about 6 pounds and should cost about $30 to ship UPS
To farcar.......I'll make life easey for you, evan though my profile says Greenwich Ct, I now live in Indian Wells which is next to Palm Springs........make a great weekend of it and pick it up. I had another one and it cost $100 for UPS to wrap. It weighs about 45 pounds as there are no interior parts.,
whats the weight? Trying to estimate shipping to CA
