The XSV 17 ‘Thunder Child’ is a stealth boat that will self-right if capsized thanks to its low centre of gravity and the buoyancy of its watertight cabin. Made for the military and law enforcement it can fit a crew of 12 and withstand any weather condition with its shock reducing seats at maximum speeds of 95 km per hour. The boat also has a remote control mount that can fit a machine gun or grenade launcher. This is the kind of boat James Bond will have on pre-order.
Did you know: If a capsized vessel has enough flotation to prevent sinking, it may recover on its own if the stability is such that it is not stable inverted. Vessels of this design are called self-righting. (Source)
