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.
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.
