Since X-Yachts was founded in 1979, the company
has been synonymous with building world-class
performance cruiser-racers. This Xperformance
range is made up of fast, thrilling cruisers which
also demonstrate winning performance racing around the
cans or offshore.
The fourth generation of cruiser-racers are now sailing with
pride, and 2011 has seen the launch of two brand new
models. The first was the Xp 44; launched in April 2011,
followed by the Xp 38 in September.
The Xp 50 is set to debut in 2012, elevating the range to
the next level of comfort and performance.
When creating the new Xp range we sought to aim higher
than any other production cruiser-racer builder. Thanks
to improved build quality and technology, we can deliver
yachts which offer a significant step forward in the cruiserracer
market. We aim to create yachts which are both more
enjoyable and easy to handle for perofrmance-oriented
sailors, as well as adding to X-Yachts’ long tradition of
triumphs on the race course.
Great efforts have been made to optimise the stability of
the new Xp’s, increasing the weight of the deep bulb and
significantly improving the ballast to weight ratio, thanks to the
most advanced lamination technology and extreme attention
to detail in engineering the yacht’s exterior, interior and
technical installation. We have also focused on maintaining
X-Yachts’ superb reputation for strength and durability.

“ When describing yachts, one word is often over-used, but it is right
to the point with regards to the Xp’s by X-Yachts: beautiful. Even
moored, the Danish boatyard’s new performance boat is a serious
eye-catcher. The long lines of the cabin superstructure with its
slender dark windows and high stretched bow section as well as the
protruding perpendicular stern are modelled on the most modern
racing yachts – and all these elements go together here to produce
a treat for those who like contemporary yacht design. ”
