New Limitless 45: Fast and Flexible

Google+ Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr +

The Limitless 45 with its plumb bow, minimalist lines and transformer-type aft deck looks like the growing number of modern weekenders with a touch of speed. But unlike many other new boats in this category, the Limitless 45 does not trace its roots to Scandinavia; instead, it’s built in Turkey.

Now in Fort Lauderdale, the Limitless 45 can be powered by three 400-hp Mercury outboards, or two 600-Mercury V12 outboards. With the larger engines, it reaches a 52-knot top speed and has a range of 260 nm at 35 knots.

Like many other new yachts, the Limitless 45 has an expandable aft deck, with platforms dropping out from both sides to create a larger social space and provide immediate access to the water. They create a beach club effect, combined with the large swim platform aft. But that’s just the start of the adjustments you can make there. Push a button and you can rearrange L-shaped lounges and the large sun pad on the aft deck; they’re all on rails.

Going forward, the bulwarks are high for safety, and glass panels in the hull provide views of the water. A drop-down table and sun pad on the bow provide a social area there.

The helm is protected by a hardtop with an opening sunroof. The helm deck is air conditioned and has a windshield with carbon-fiber edges; the two Simrad MFD screens have leather binding. A bit aft there’s a well-equipped wet bar with a glass surface, sink, electric grill and pull-out fridges on both sides.

Below, the air-conditioned cabin also has air conditioning and standing headroom. The table drops down to create a double bed for overnighting, and the head is equipped with a shower.

The Limitless 45 is an example of Turkish craftsmanship married to state-of-the-art power and contemporary flexible design. The boat costs about $1 million.
