SIXTY SOLAR SAIL In-Depth:

CEO Reveals the Engineering Excellence Behind
Xquisite’s New Performance Catamaran

40′ PowerCat
In this comprehensive walkthrough, Tamas Hamor, Founder and CEO of Xquisite Yachts, takes us on a detailed exploration of their new sailing flagship, revealing the innovative engineering and thoughtful design that emerged from five years of meticulous development.
Following her successful world debut at the Annapolis Boat Show, where she demonstrated impressive performance of 10 knots in just 12 knots of wind, this remarkable vessel showcases Xquisite’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of luxury catamaran design.

The Evolution of Excellence

The SIXTY SOLAR SAIL represents the pinnacle of Xquisite’s sailing catamaran evolution. Beginning with the acclaimed X5, which saw 16 hulls produced, the company progressed to the enhanced X5 Plus. Now, Xquisite presents two new sailing models: the 54 E-Plus and their sailing flagship. This strategic evolution demonstrates Xquisite’s commitment to continuous innovation in the sailing catamaran sector. As the company expands its range to include power catamarans, she stands as the flagship of their sailing line, embodying their expertise in performance sailing yacht design.

Engineering Innovation

The development journey involved a complete rethinking of catamaran design. The Xquisite team spent a year analyzing every component’s weight, leading to a revolutionary approach: expanding to a 60-foot platform while maintaining the equipment package of a smaller vessel. This innovative solution, combined with naval architecture by Bill Dixon of Dixon Yacht Design, delivers superior performance without compromising luxury.

What truly sets this performance catamaran apart is her sophisticated single-handed sailing capability. Every aspect has been engineered for efficient operation by one person:
  • Comprehensive camera system for sail management
  • Electric and hydraulic sail handling systems
  • Centralized helm control station
  • Protected helm position with complete visibility
  • Integrated safety features

  • Full-size home appliances throughout
  • King-size walk-around beds in master and VIP suites
  • Innovative boom design with integrated shade system
  • Up to 7kW of solar power capacity
  • 48V DC system for efficient energy management

  • Hybrid propulsion system
  • Regenerative power capabilities under sail
  • Advanced monitoring systems
  • Integrated smart controls
  • State-of-the-art navigation equipment

Space Optimization

Every inch of this luxury vessel has been thoughtfully designed for extended living aboard:
  • Master suite occupying an entire hull
