This Italian designer’s 1994 Presentation drawing for a speed boat shows sleek lines and racing stripes on one sheet of vellum. The sheet’s ruled margins frame a side view of a hull sliced open to reveal the engine, as if the boat itself were a diagram. Small handwritten notes in the corner list power specs and paint codes, details that turn a sketch into a contract between studio and shipyard.

The drawing still lives in the archive of a Milanese firm that built racing hulls for the Mediterranean circuit. Tap the sheet to zoom into the engine call-outs.
