Interview with X-Yachts' CEO, Kræn Brinck Nielsen
SEPTEMBER 2011
Als het Deense X-Yachts met een nieuwe reeks uitkomt wordt daar reikhalzend naar uitgekeken. Varen nam de uitnodiging voor een testvaart in de Engelse thuisbasis van X-Yachts wat graag aan. Voor verdere evaluatie werd het schip gevolgd tijdens de IRC Nationals, die half juli in Cowes werden gevaren.

Statements translated from the test
“The design team of X-Yachts succeeded to design a new X4⁰, on which I have not much to remark. X stands for speed. X stands for quality. X stands for comfort.”
“With wind force 3-4 we measured 8-9 knots with the gennaker. With the jib and mainsail at 30°, we did 7 knots medium speed and sometimes the meter went to 8,2 knots.”
“The lines, colors and shapes are right and harmonious. The designers succeeded to create space, peacefulness and light under deck.”
“Conclusion: the X4⁰ is the perfect boat for the real sailor. There are no remarks to be made."

Translated from French:
The X4⁰ is a testimony of the know-how of the yard in terms of construction methods (hull in infusion, steel frame to sustain the load of keel and rig) as well as for quality of finish (very nice joinery, perfect adjustments).
One can regret that this entry model is already a big boat, but the buyer mostly with this two cabins version enjoys the same qualities as on the larger yachts of the range.
A chic, fast and comfortable boat… who could ask for more?

The new yacht in X-Yacht’s XRange is not a 40-footer. Let’s get that out of the way now – she’s 37ft 8in. She’s great fun, and has the nimble feel and speed that most 40-footers can only dream of, but don’t think she has the accommodation of a 40ft yacht; the 40 in her name is her length overall, including her bowsprit. Her interior is stylish, practical and well put together, she’s easily handled by a couple and can take you cruising in speed and style.
With that clarified, I can start telling you all how good she is and, oh my, she is good.

"The new ‘baby’ of the X-Yachts fleet is a 40-footer that is a real looker and a great performer"
