This 1:12 scale model celebrates the extraordinary Ferrari Arno XI hydroplane, a unique fusion of automotive and nautical engineering. Commissioned by Italian engineer and racing driver Achille Castoldi, the Arno XI was constructed in 1953 by Cantieri Timossi on Lake Como. It was powered by a Ferrari 375 F1 V12 engine, modified with twin superchargers to produce over 600 horsepower. On October 15, 1953, Castoldi set a world speed record of 241.708 km/h (150.19 mph) on Lake Iseo in the 800 kg class a record that still stands today.
This meticulously crafted model captures the sleek design and engineering excellence of the original hydroplane. It features a polished mahogany hull and authentic detailing, embodying the spirit of innovation and performance that defines Ferrari’s legacy.
