The Canados Gladiator 411 Carbon Series is a 41-foot monohull capable of reaching 100 mph.
So far, all 41' monohulls with engines available on the market that can reach the 100 mph mark are equipped with large inboard V8 engines.
Not only are they expensive, but they require considerable maintenance and offer low fuel efficiency. The Gladiator 411 Carbon Series offers the only alternative to high-power inboard engines with the super reliable and super quiet Mercury 450R outboard engines that can be easily maintained anywhere. The double-deck hull and deck are entirely made of custom woven carbon fiber and Kevlar - epoxy. The hull is so sleek that with a dry weight of 3100 Kg/6800 pounds, the boat will be on average 30% lighter than any other boat of this type on the market.
Despite its very sleek and aggressive design, the 411 Carbon Series is extremely comfortable, thanks to its five X-Craft shock-absorbing seats. All the rigging is made of anodized aluminum and carbon fiber, much of it custom-produced for Canados. All upholstery will be in Alcantara® Exo and the boat will be painted, like all other Canados, in Awlgrip®. In its three-engine configuration, the 411 Gladiator can reach top speeds well above 115 mph.
