In 1978, we made history. At the Miami Boat Show, Velocity Powerboats introduced the world’s first pad-bottom, notched transom hull design, revolutionizing offshore powerboating. Our 30-foot race boat instantly turned heads—running 12 to 15 MPH faster than anything else in its class.
By 1981, we shattered expectations again, breaking the World Speed Record in an APBA-sanctioned event at Mercury’s legendary Lake X. We were the first offshore boat to break the 100 MPH barrier—proof that innovation and performance are in our DNA.
For over 49 years, Velocity Powerboats has redefined performance on the water. Our legacy is built on race-proven, cutting-edge Hydrodynamic Hull Technology™, a proprietary design that optimizes every element—transom, strakes, chines, and keel—for speed, safety, and superior handling.
We’re not just fast—we’re the fastest, safest, and best-handling performance boats on the water, with 20 World Speed Records, 15 National Championships, and 18 World Championships in Offshore Racing to prove it. While others added steps to their hulls in an effort to reduce drag—often at the cost of stability and control—Velocity took a different route. Our advanced hull design delivers maximum efficiency without compromising safety or handling. The result? A ride that's fast, responsive, and confidence-inspiring—even in the roughest conditions. At Velocity, every boat is handcrafted with unmatched quality, attention to detail, and passion. When you choose Velocity, you’re not just a customer—you’re family.
