The atmosphere was tense when X-Yachts’ NEW X4³ was hanging razor sharp in its centerlift at the yard in Haderslev/DK. The moment was witnessed and toasted in champagne by X-Yachts dealers from around the globe, well knowing that this new member of the Pure X line will soon become the most popular model of all X-Yachts.
Prior to the launch, key riggers and boat builders worked hard to get the mast stepped and tuned, and to get the most necessary details ready for the first sea trials that were due on the following days. The NEW X4³ has gone through a serious make over with a completely new hull and deck design together with many other improvements since its successful predecessor, that was sold in more than 100 pcs. No need to say that the whole yard – and not least the Design & Engineering team – has been looking very much forward to the special moment when the beautiful new X4³ hit the water – said CEO Kræn Brinck Nielsen.
We are more than happy with the NEW X4³ said a smiling and happy Design & Engineering director Thomas Mielec after the first days of testing:
Our mast supplier John Mast has done a really nice job with the new aluminum mast that is 50 cm higher than on the previous version of the X4³. The mast trims to a well distributed prebend curve over the length of the mast and it’s as stiff as we like it – both in transverse and longitudinal direction.
The new mainsheet traveller system (now upgraded with hardware from Ronstan and a 7:1 purchase) proved a very noticeable improvement on the main sheet trimming. A few points of further improvements with positioning of fittings etc. were identified in the first test and will be re-worked on the final boat.
The new hull design with wider transom and lifted soft chines suits the X4³ very well. The additional form stability is quite noticeable, as is the considerably less wake and turbulence of the heeled transom travelling through the water.
At the helm you have a nice and direct feel. With slight adjustment to the responsiveness of the rudder, that shares the now updated design of the entire Pure X range rudders, helming this yacht will be a fantastic experience for the owners – says Mielec.
X-Yachts CEO Kræn Brinck Nielsen is just as happy as Mielec:
The first X4³ model sold more than 100 boats in four years and proved a fantastic success, but the NEW X4³ has already sold 23 pieces before we were even able to take the first real picture of the boat!
We can’t wait to get her out in the market in 2022 after a full month of testing and adjusting the final bits of equipment to perfection.

NEW X4³ test sailing in November 2021.
The hull is made using vacuum infused epoxy sandwich lamination technology to ensure maximum strength and safety. The X4³ offers sailors a substantial keel weight and sail plan making it a dream to sail into wind and waves.
Eleven fixed hull and deck port lights and twelve openable deck hatches ensures maximum interior ventilation and light.
Six well sized self-tailing winches for halyards, genoa and main sheet.
All X-Yachts normal features including encapsulated lead keel, hydraulic backstay adjuster, discontinuous rod rigging and Spectra halyards are standard.
The X4³ offers a choice of pedestal options to customise the twin composite wheels.
The X4³ deck hatches, portlights and windows are carefully selected for a flush fitting. Advanced design hinge mechanisms on the opening coachroof windows ensure there are no fittings or bolts visible from the outside, yet allowing ventilation and increased light down below.
The X4³ ha a removable folding table available which can be folded and stored in one of the cockpit lockers.
The X4³ has an optional bathing platform with a large removable bathing ladder. The bathing platform can easily be lifted using a simple rope mechanism. Adjustable foot-chocks integrated into the lazarette hatches ensure the helmsman may enjoy a perfect steering position, with a sense of security as well as a clear view forward during manoeuvres and close sailing situations.
The X4³ offers a choice of four pedestal options to customise the twin composite wheels and ensure every skipper has their preferred information at their fingertips. In addition, displays can also be mounted on the mast bracket and/or the companionway instrument housing for ease of viewing by all members of crew.
S-bow design and integrated standard bow sprit as standard has been incorporated.
In June 2018, Ib Kunøe single-handedly sailed 200 seamiles in his X4³. He has written a story about the trip.
Danish design and architecture is famous for its clean, timeless style. It showcases luxury whilst also being functionally designed to work either out on the open seas or moored up in harbour.
Superior quality, detailed interior carpentry and materials used sets it apart from mass produced boats, producing an exquisite, natural interior.
Numerous deck and hull portlights allow for ample light to flood in, gifting the interior with a bright and roomy ambiance.
Plentiful storage space throughout allows for an uncluttered, ‘live on board’ lifestyle, giving you a place one can retreat to when the weather outside is less forgiving.
