The largest Xc model, the Xc 50 is a refined bluewater cruising yacht, offering a wide range of custom options to allow owners to create an elegant personalised yacht. Design details include minimalist flush opening deck hatches, smart interior recessed teak stripes, stylish lighting, and a choice of bimini and sprayhood options. The innovative Xcruising folding transom includes additional features on the Xc 50. Besides a hinged liferaft storage compartment to starboard there is also an extra storage compartment to port for a stern anchor, or flammable material such as diesel cans. The centre of the transom hydraulically folds down to form a bathing platform, with optional davits for a tender.
Underway, the high stability Xc 50 is generously canvassed, but with a high specification deck layout and controllable rig, designed to be easily managed for unmatched sailing performance. The Xc 50 will reach maximum hull speed in approximately 9 knots of true wind speed, using the 140% overlapping genoa. The sail plan has been created specifically for long distance cruising, and includes a 106% non-overlapping genoa, and 94% self-tacking jib. The mainsail comes with an option of in-boom furling. The Xc 50 is also easily sailed short-handed, with under-deck halyards led aft to self-tailing winches (including electric options) and a secure central console.
Custom options include an extra large owners’ cabin with ensuite heads to port. Aft there are two roomy double cabins, with the option of both ensuite. Alternatively an extra-spacious galley can be created with additional worktop space to port, and a single aft heads with shower. The galley features space for two refrigerators, optional microwave, and Nespresso machine.
