The 120X isn't just a boat—it's a challenge to mediocrity. In collaboration with KISKA , we have radically reinterpreted the DNA of PERFORMANCE Marine. The result: a day cruiser that doesn’t just travel at speed—it embodies it. Speed as Gravity.
The PERFORMANCE 120X is the radical answer to mediocrity on the water. Where others stop, it’s just getting started: a brutally powerful day cruiser that doesn’t just go fast—it embraces speed as a force of nature. Here, classic boat design gives way to an uncompromising aesthetic of visible carbon structures, purist ergonomics, and a V-Split architecture that breaks down every barrier between you and the element. The 120X is not a retreat—it is a statement of raw power and industrial precision. Experience the spectacle that redefines the rules of the seas.
Founded on Lake Garda in the 1980s, PERFORMANCE Marine built a legendary reputation for loud, fast, and uncompromising machines. Over time, however, that spirit faded. Two new owners—successful entrepreneurs from outside the marine world—recognized the potential to turn the brand’s fortunes around… knowing full well that there is far more power in its existing DNA than has been harnessed so far.
The 120X marks a decisive turning point for the entire industry. Moving away from generic day cruisers and over-the-top American clichés, toward something fundamentally Italian. The official premiere took place in January 2026, with deliveries beginning in 2027. This makes the 120X far more than just a new model—it is a clear statement of our intentions and the starting signal for the next generation of PERFORMANCE MARINE.

The exterior design is defined by a relatively simple yet extremely powerful hull. A high sidewall and elongated proportions convey a sense of speed—even when the boat is at a standstill. The carbon-trimmed air intakes serve as a distinctive design signature. A striking carbon wing outlet also offers a deliberate glimpse into the engine compartment… another moment in which the boat’s performance is spectacularly showcased.
The 120X is a day cruiser. It’s not just a floating storage unit for your towels. A visible carbon frame structure underscores its performance credentials and gives it a lightweight, industrial feel. Everything you need for an extraordinary day on the water is on board (essentials like a refrigerator and ice maker)—without compromising the clarity of the design or the radical intent.
