Xquisite Yachts is used to building comfortable cruising catamarans, so this sporty model comes as something of a surprise.
Published 25/01/2023
With its completely uncluttered cockpit, the boat is reminiscent of the Kat 28, Corneel 26, Edel Cat 33 or the very early Aventuras. The program is therefore sporty day sailing, with option to stay overnight on board - only the hulls are fitted out. The Xquisite 30 SportCat can be dismantled and transported by trailer. Its sail area-to-weight ratio is 50.59 m²/t, a value that is unambiguously dragster-like on two hulls... the rotating mast and carbon beams leave no doubt about the sportiness of this catamaran. As an option, daggerboards can be fitted instead of the standard skeg keels. On windless days or for maneuvering in port, this devilishly attractive catamaran resorts to using its 10 HP outboard. An electric motor can also be requested.

Very nice & light cat, but very expensive. With 4 people onboard the sail area / ton ratio will drop around 30, very similar to a carbon mast equipped Ventio which will cost half the price, sleeps up to six guests, and may be equipped with galley & bath.
