Yorkshire-based luxury vehicle brand Twisted Inc. proudly announces the expansion of its Marine Division with the acquisition of Scorpion RIBs, a name synonymous with over 25 years of high-performance boat manufacturing.

This milestone further cements Twisted's 20-year legacy of engineering excellence and craftsmanship.

The next generation of these iconic, British-built RIBs will debut at Boot Düsseldorf 2025, offering press and the public their first look at a vessel that seamlessly blends the heritage, innovation, and craftsmanship that define both Twisted and Scorpion.

A bold new model line-up is In celebration of this new chapter, Scorpion's model range has been reimagined. While honouring its storied heritage and signature DNA, the brand's refreshed line-up secures its reputation as the trendsetter in the industry.

At the forefront is a 35ft RIB powered by twin 400hp Mercury V10 outboards, boasting a new console design language equipped with twin 12" SIMRAD NSX Multi-Functional Displays.

The revised layout maximises social space while incorporating modern build techniques and state-of-the-art rigging. Paired with Scorpion's pedigree hull design, this new vessel continues the tradition of class-leading seakeeping, performance, and luxury.

Innovation in boat building

"The marine sector has always held the same attraction as automotive for us—the potential to enhance, improve, and personalise," said Charles Fawcett, Founder and Director of Twisted. "Our expansion in the Marine Division isn't just about building boats; it's about bringing our obsession with perfection into an industry we truly love."

Jake Cronk, Director of Twisted Marine, added: "By combining Twisted's engineering excellence with pedigree marine expertise, we're creating something truly unique. Scorpion is the original luxury, go-anywhere RIB—an incredible foundation to build upon. With our new models, we'll lead the segment once again. I can't wait to unveil our first boat in Germany and see the industry's reaction."
