Here’s the first look at Lap1, the premiere launch of the Baglietto MV13.

The MV13 was conceived by Francesco Paszkowski Designs in conjunction with Baglietto. Lap1 was customized by Garage Italia Customs, which is a recent venture of her owner, Lapo Elkann.
The prototype of the MV13 was powered by a pair of 800-horsepower MAN R6-800 diesels.

“‘MV’ stands for motoscafo veloce, which in English means ‘fast motorboat,’ as speed was one of the main targets since the very beginning of this project,” says Francesco Paszkowski of Francesco Paszkowski Design. “As we usually design larger yachts, the whole process—from the design to the building—was a different and very exciting experience.”
