Xquisite / Phoenix yachts in expansion mode with a new model

A new South African power catamaran will debut at this month’s Miami Boat Show courtesy of Phoenix Marine / Xquisite Yachts.

The 17m Xquisite 56 Power Cat built as the ultimate luxury cruising catamaran, designed by Rudolf Jonker and expected to be in production later this year with a first hull expected early next year. It comes on the back of another Jonker design, the award-winning X5 luxury 50’ cat which is already keeping the shipyard busy with a ramped up production of five boats a year.

Xquisite chief executive Tamas Hamor said the name of the new model would only be revealed at the Miami show.

“This exciting new model from Xquisite Yachts / Phoenix Marine is a thoroughbred power catamaran designed from scratch as a power yacht, not just a sailing boat without a mast,”

“This new model will be the ultimate luxury cruising catamaran for couples and families who want to explore our oceans under power, rather than sailing.”

“She will be capable of speeds over 20 knots, while still offers very reasonable fuel consumption and long range at an ‘eco-cruising speed’ of around 9 knots,”

said Tamas Hamor, CEO, Xquisite Yachts.

Phoenix Marine started production five years ago at its Atlantis facility which recently expanded to about 6500m². The company currently employs about 75 staff but will look to extend further with the addition of the new power cat. Boats are marketed on an exclusive basis by Miami-based Xquisite Yachts.

Last year Tamas told IBI news that Phoenix was well placed to benefit from high demand coming from the US. Buyers were particularly interested in larger models, Tamas said.

NEWS FROM THE BUILDERS

We approved of the Xquisite Yachts X5 when we tested it, a little under two years ago now. The builder’s sales results demonstrate that we hadn’t exaggerated, because to date the order book is wellfilled, as nine examples of the X5 have been sold and five have already been delivered to their owners – the others are currently under construction.

The South African builder is nonetheless continuing its development, with a Power Catamaran currently being developed, the first example of which has already been sold. Construction will begin at the end of the year, for a launch in 2020.

NOUVELLES DES CHANTIERS

Nous avions plébiscité l’Xquisite Yachts X5 lors de notre essai, voilà maintenant un peu moins de deux ans. Les résultats des ventes du chantier démontrent que cela n’était pas exagéré de notre part, car, à ce jour, le carnet de commandes est bien rempli, puisque neuf unités du X5 ont été vendues et cinq déjà livrées à leurs propriétaires – les autres étant actuellement en construction.

Le chantier sud-africain n’en continue pas moins son développement, avec un Power Catamaran actuellement en développement, dont le no 1 est d’ores et déjà vendu. La construction commencera en fin d’année pour une mise à l’eau en 2020.

NEWS FROM THE BUILDERS

Phoenix Marine Manufacturing, Xquisite Yachts’ South African partner, has just moved the production line dedicated to the Xquisite X5 catamaran. The new factory actually allows three boats to be built at the same time, therefore the customers’ demands can be met more rapidly.

Hull no 5 has thus just been delivered to its owners in the Caribbean whilst nos 6, 7 and 8 in the series are now being built.

At the same time, the builder is working on its brand new 55-foot motor catamaran, which will be officially announced at the next Miami Boat Show, where a sailing X5 will be presented. The launch of the first 55 Power is planned for 2019.
