Silveira Group launches new PWC brand PersonalWatercraft.com March 25, 2010 Shares Comments Samba XRS features a carbon fiber hullA new brand of personal watercraft is open for business. The Silveira Group announced the launch of the Samba XRS. According to the manufacturer, the Sambra XRS is a carbon fiber, ultra maneuverable PWC. Founded by Rod Silveira and Kristen Merck, this American company has developed a unique watercraft designed to give the rider a great range of maneuverability on an ergonomic semi-prone riding position, similar to that of a sport bike. The Samba XRS is built super light, utilizing the same carbon fiber production techniques used in the Aviation and Racing industries to produce a hull that weighs only 34 pounds. Powered by a 110 HP, 4-stroke engine, the Samba XRS Pro claims to be one of the fastest personal watercrafts commercially available. According to the Silveira Group, this new hull design lowers the rider’s center of gravity, allowing beginners to perform tricks without any prior experience. “In a world of big and bigger PWCs, we felt the need to respond to a long awaited need for a more intuitive and responsive way of riding a personal watercraft”, says Silveira. The company is taking pre-orders on its Website. The XRS Pro has an MSRP of $28,995, while the base XRS, with a 60 HP, 2-stroke engine, retails for $16,995.
