And you will never be short of thrills as the ship can reach top speeds of 43 knots, with its twin MTU 16V000 engine, with the ability to achieve 55 knots with its optional Rolls Royce KaMeWa boosters offering a staggering 14,000hp. 
But not to be outdone, the super car, which is powered by a 880hp twin turbo V12 engine has a top speed of 375kmh.

You can even park your new car on board the impressive boat in its very own garage, located at the stern of the ship.
 Founder of the Swedish company Strand Craft, Kurt Strand said they had built the boat and car for the 'very wealthy'.
He said: 'We have had a lot of interest from all over the world, specifically the Middle East, it was designed for luxury and for people who want the best. 
'The custom made super car is the best feature, both the boat and the car are very high performance and the boat is very fast. 
'It is very unique and we are making it in limited numbers, so it's exclusive, we are only making six. '
It has a very futuristic design and nothing like this has ever been made before. It even has bullet proof windows.'

Mr Strand said that they would sell the duo on a first come, first serve basis, and said the new owner would need to be wealthy to afford it. 
'We have already had five people interested in it and we will have meetings with them next week,' he added. 
'It's a very expensive boat to produce, it will be the most exclusive in the world.
 'It's very good that this design has found so much interest from clients. I am very proud of it.'
