The XO EXPLR 9 is built for crews who want the all-weather capability of a DFNDR with the overnight comfort of a true cabin cruiser. The compact Explorer of the XO range — it packs a 230 cm berth, optional A/C, sound-proofed cabin, and a roof hatch into a 28'1" deep-V that punches well above its class.
28'1" (8.57 m) LOA, 8'5" (2.57 m) beam, 22° deadrise aluminum/GRP composite construction. Up to 450 hp outboard, 81 US gal (305 L) fuel, 40+ knot top end, 8 passengers, 2 berths, CE Category C. Designed in Finland, engineered for everywhere.
The kind of boat that turns a Saturday morning Bahamas crossing into a routine — and gets you home Sunday night without ever feeling like you pushed the hull.

The EXPLR 9 is the smallest XO with a true overnight cabin — built for buyers who want offshore capability and the comfort of going down below at the end of a long day on the water.
BUILT FOR FLORIDA WATERS
The EXPLR 9’s deep-V was engineered for Nordic offshore conditions — which means it eats Florida chop and Bahamas crossings without flinching. When others stay in port, you go.
