Additional Context
Dubai-based company Innoventive 3D has released the Vortek, a 3D printed speedboat. The same firm previously made the Cyberfin, reportedly from marine waste. The Vortex looks kind of like it would suit Batman, but it even looks more like a dog head robot from a Japanese cartoon that at any moment is likely to flip and join five other robots in a giant mechatronic Spot the Dog. Certainly futuristic, the boat is now commercially available, and you can order one today.
The boat is made in Dubai, and the hull, deck, and superstructure were made using Material Extrusion. You can customize your boat, and they are built to order. Reportedly, the build time is in weeks, and it costs a third of a traditionally made speedboat of the same size.
