Xquisite Catamaran Center
Xquisite Yachts welcomes guests to its most exclusive In-House Bahamas Boat Show to date, running February 6–8, 2026
at the Xquisite Catamaran Center and Xquisite Suites in Freeport, Grand Bahama Island. Over three days, guests are
touring the full Xquisite fleet, joining sea trials on multiple models, meeting the team behind the brand,
and experiencing the Xquisite lifestyle at our new waterfront hub in the Bahamas.

A Boutique Boat Show at the Source

Forget the crowded aisles and rushed walkthroughs of international boat shows. This three-day event takes place where our catamarans are actually commissioned, serviced, and maintained – giving you a behind-the-scenes look you won’t get anywhere else.
Stay at the new Xquisite Suites, enjoy a gourmet meal at The Galley – Bar & Restaurant, and spend real time aboard several models – at the dock and out on the water. No pressure, no rush.
Still curious? Nearly ready? Either way, you’ll have plenty of time with our team and a chance to see how owners actually live with their boats.

The Xquisite 30′ SportCat Shines in Multihulls World Magazine’s Test

JUMP TO VIDEO

We are excited to share the highlights of Multihulls World Magazine’s in-depth test of the Xquisite 30′ SportCat featured in the upcoming May/June 2024, Issue #195 of Multihulls World Magazine. This detailed review underscores the catamaran’s perfect blend of performance, innovation, and ease of handling. As the proud builders of the award-winning Xquisite Yachts line, including the acclaimed “Boat of the Year”, it’s a privilege to see the 30′ SportCat recognized by such a reputable publication.

Multihulls World – May/June 2024, Issue #195  

A New Milestone in Catamaran Design

Introduced by Xquisite Yachts, the 30′ SportCat marks a significant achievement in modern catamaran design.
Crafted with precision in Poland, this vessel is a testament to our dedication to excellence in the nautical world since our inception in 2014.
Originally developed for the Xquisite sailing school in Grand Bahama, the 30′ SportCat serves as an exceptional platform for both novice and experienced sailors to enjoy the thrill of sailing. Its lightweight design, tipping the scales at just 1,875 lbs empty, makes it easily transportable and quick to set up, inviting explorers to venture into new waters.

Elegance Meets Performance

The 30′ SportCat’s sleek design and inverted bows catch the eye, while its construction from fiberglass and carbon components ensures durability and stellar performance. The rotating carbon mast and premium 3Di North Sails efficiently harness wind power, offering a sailing experience that’s both exhilarating and intuitive.
The catamaran’s design prioritizes functionality and simplicity, with a spacious deck layout that makes maneuvering a breeze. Comfortable seating and ample storage space below deck mean day trips and overnight stays are equally comfortable, allowing adventurers to make the most of their time at sea.

Agile and Speedy on the Waves

The 30′ SportCat stands out for its agility and speed, even in light winds, making every voyage memorable. It’s designed to comfortably accommodate up to eight passengers, perfect for solo adventures or group outings.
