Pirelli is known for some of the world’s best car tires. Tecnorib is an Italian boat manufacturer known for creative sport craft that glides along the water.

While the two have collaborated before, the 1900 Yacht may be their best yet. At 61 feet long and just over 16 feet wide, the 1900 remains true to the sporty nature of the Italian brand, while adding the comfort and durability of an inflatable tube made from real Pirelli tire tread.

The 1900 Yacht features a carbon-fiber roof and twin 800hp engines, reaching cruising speeds of 30 knots and can go a maximum of 45 knots in good conditions. The boat also carries some creature comforts including two cabins, two bathrooms and a living area.

The boat is part of Pirelli’s Design Project, which carries from prior collaborations with Tecnorib. Two years ago, the pair created the 1400, which was a smaller craft (one bedroom, integrated kitchen area), but had a handsome oak interior and white fiberglass throughout. Each collaboration is sleek, European and definitely a unique look on the water.

The 1900 lies somewhere between daytime cruiser and overnight offshore luxury camper. It’s sure to be a hit when it debuts this fall at the Cannes Yachting Festival.

I’ve had an outdoor couch like this for years, now’s your chance to save $300

Best Choice outdoor couch with seven pieces and coffee table

I had originally built a DIY paver patio before we eventually commissioned a pool and deck to be built in our backyard. After it was finished, I ordered a Best Choice wicker patio couch very much like the one I will share here. It has lasted all of that time, for years, and we've only replaced the cushions once. Why am I telling you this? Because every backyard setup needs some comfortable, reliable seating, just like the Best Choice outdoor couch that's on sale at Amazon today. Normally $800, it's down to $500 -- saving you $300. Not only is that one hell of a deal, but also, knowing pretty much the same couch has lasted me and my family years, even with some remodeling, I can tell you it's a great buy. Keep in mind, that there are a few different styles with varying prices for each. The brown wicker and dark rust cushions version, for instance, , so $100 more. That's still a great deal, but not as low. Either way, I recommend taking a look.

Why you should consider this 7-piece outdoor couch set with a coffee table and a cover
Since I didn't really delve into the set in the intro or talk about what you get, here it is: The entire set includes seven pieces, with two corners, four mid-section pieces, all the cushions, and pillows, plus a coffee table with a glass top and a cover to keep the couch protected from the elements. The only thing I didn't get with my set is that cover, which, honestly, will be a huge boon if you decide to grab this deal. You'd be surprised at just how fast those cushions get dirty or faded when exposed to the elements.
