Frauscher 858 Fantom: Brutal Elegance
This boat marks a revolutionary step for the Austrian shipyard. Its genesis stems from a powerful collaboration: Thomas Herzer—the development manager behind the iconic Frauscher 717 GT—partnered with visionaries Harry Miesbauer and Gerald Kiska to bring the 858 Fantom to life.
The design language is a masterful contradiction: both brutal and elegant. Its wide, low stance, vertical bow, and sculpted side curves command attention, while the deep-V hull ensures it cuts through waves with precision. Engineered for uncompromising performance, the boat's immense structural strength and lack of side steps allow it to carve into high-speed turns with agility and maintain impeccable course stability. Owners can tailor its power, selecting an engine from 300 to 540 hp, paired with a Bravo 1 or Bravo 1 XR drive.
