Rent a boat X-Yachts
The story of X-Yachts, a boat-building company specializing in the design of cruising and racing yachts, began in 1979. Based in Denmark, the brand is now present in many countries. X-Yachts: a story that began with racingX-Yachts was founded by two Danish brothers, Lars and Niels Jeppesen, who were joined by Birger Hanser. Their first model, the X-79, was a 26-foot boat with one hull. Of the 468 boats produced, one managed to win the Sjælland Rundt, an event in which over 2,100 boats took part. Throughout the 80s, X-Yachts designed and produced several yachts for World Class Racing, such as the X-102 and X-102s, which won several international trophies. The prowess of these Danish yachts prompted the company to turn to the cruising market, with the aim of offering high-performance yachts with an excellent level of comfort. This led to the creation of the X-412, followed by the X-382. At the same time, X-Yacht continued to produce boats with one hull for racing. Between 1993 and the 2000s, the IMX 38, 40 and 45 followed one another, enriching the manufacturer's list of achievements (SORC, IMS European Championships, Rolex Commodores' Cup). X-Yachts todayToday, X-Yachts has three production lines. Xracing is entirely dedicated to racing models such as the X-35 and the X-41. The Danish brand also offers a range of cruising boats that focus on style and comfort, the Xcruising. In 2009, one of the sailboats, the XC 45, was named the best sailboat of the year in Europe. The following year, it was the XC 42 that won the prestigious title, followed by the XC 38 in 2011. Recently, the Xperformance line has enriched the Danish manufacturer's catalog. The aim is to integrate a new design spirit into the tradition of performance, thus enabling the meeting of a passion for the sea and the joy of being with the family. Since 2012, the majority of X-Yachts has passed into the hands of Consolidated Holdings, which belongs to the businessman Ib Konue. However, the three founders remain shareholders and the two brothers continue to take care of production and design, guaranteeing respect for the traditions that have made the company famous.
