Xquisite Yachts in the new Multihulls World & Multicoques Mag!

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.

Xquisite X5 in SAIL magazine 2019 Buyer’s Guide

Xquisite Yachts has teamed up with the South African builder, Phoenix Marine Manufacturing to develop and build a new line of luxury sailing and power catamarans. As a boutique boatyard the company limits its production to be able to focus on

Delivering the highest build quality and finish, while offering an after sales service unmatched in the industry

Their first model, the X5 SAIL is a 50’ sailing catamaran designed and built for serious blue water cruising with maximum comfort in mind. All vessels are equipped for single handed sailing with two head sails and electric winches. All X5 SAILs also come fully loaded for living aboard in luxury, with generator, air conditioning, water maker, washing machine, electric winches and davits, solar panels, entertainment and digital switching systems as part of the very extensive list of standard equipment.

As the company limits it’s production to five X5 SAIL hulls per year, there is already a waiting list to purchase one of these fine catamarans. To offer the best after sales service, XQUISITE YACHTS is setting up a network of factory authorized repair facilities around the world and the yacht’s maintenance will be scheduled via a unique ipad application, which comes standard on each boat.

Xquisite Yachts is currently developing their new model, the 56’ power catamaran, and the first hull will be in production in 2019.

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.

Phoenix Marine Manufacturing, le partenaire sud-africain d’Xquisite Yachts, vient de déménager la ligne de production dédiée au catamaran Xquisite X5. La nouvelle usine permet en effet de construire trois bateaux en même temps, et donc de répondre plus rapidement à la demande des clients.

La coque no 5 vient ainsi d’être livrée à ses propriétaires en Caraïbes, tandis que les nos 6, 7 et 8 de la série sont d’ores et déjà en fabrication.

Dans le même temps, le chantier travaille sur son tout nouveau catamaran à moteur de 55 pieds, qui sera annoncé officiellement au prochain salon de Miami, où un X5 voile sera présenté. La mise à l’eau du premier 55 Power est prévue en 2019.
