A Full Tour of the Xquisite X5 Plus
& The Real Owner Experience with Gone with the Wynns!
What happens when renowned world-cruisers go on a mission to find their next boat home?
They bring a healthy dose of experience, an eye for detail, and a powerful BS detector!
That’s why we were so excited to welcome Jason and Nikki of Gone with the Wynns to our Freeport, Bahamas base. They came to see if the “utopian commune” and “cult-like following” surrounding our yachts was just clever marketing or if there was something more to the story.
In this incredible hour-long video, they conduct a full tour of the X5 Plus, from the dock to open water, and get an unfiltered, honest perspective by sitting down with one of our experienced owners, Dave, to talk about what it’s really like to own and cruise an Xquisite Catamaran.

The Xquisite Philosophy: Where Standard Means Ready-to-Cruise
A key part of the Xquisite experience is our commitment to a ready-to-cruise vessel from day one. Our philosophy, crafted by our founder and circumnavigator Tamas Hamor, is to anticipate a sailor’s every need. That means essential bluewater gear like a dishwasher, washing machine, generator, a complete toolkit, and even dive equipment aren’t found on a long options list – they are standard.
This commitment extends to our community. Our base in Freeport isn’t just a sales office; it’s a hub for service, training, and camaraderie, complete with owner apartments and a full-service restaurant a charter and more. As Dave explains in his conversation with Jason and Nikki, this community and direct support from the builder create a sense of trust and an ownership experience that is truly unique.
