Can’t make it the Southampton International Boat Show this year? If so, why not join X-Yachts and ‘Experience the Brand’ at its Open Week in Hamble after the show?

Between next Tuesday 27 September and Sunday 2 October, you’ll have the chance to view the X4⁰, X4³ and X4⁶ at Hamble Point Marina — with the possibility of a test sailing, subject to availability.

Register an appointment with Debbie Weldon, and in the meantime you still have a chance to catch Debbie with Julien Renault and Stuart Abernathy at the X-Yachts stand as the Southampton International Boat Show continues till this weekend.

X-Yachts GB has a brand new X4⁶ ready to go from its Hamble location.

The white vessel in the split aft berth option comes with a V-furling boom, three electrical winches and a generator.

For more details, get in touch with Stuart Abernathy now.

Formula 1 driver Kevin Magnussen has shared his dreams travelling the world by sail in a new video from X-Yachts, as he sails an Xc 38 from the Danish firm’s easy sailing Xcruising range.

The fellow Dane has long been a fan of the X-Yachts brand — indeed, his “best moment” in one of its yachts was with his wife, enjoying their honeymoon on board an X4⁶ for a week’s sailing around the Greek islands.

True to his racing driver nature, Magnussen is clear about his priorities in his perfect boat.

“What I look for in a boat is, of course, safety — then comfort and performance. I would say those two things don’t really go hand in hand in sailing … I feel like X-Yachts are a very good compromise of those two things.”

The Haas F1 Team driver also shares his excitement at X-Yachts’ new foray into the powerboat market.

Says Magnussen: “I’ll surely have a go in one and see what it’s like — go fishing, hopefully.”

As reported earlier, the Southampton International Boat Show opens today with key Irish marine firms in attendance over the next week and more.

Joining them will be X-Yachts GB & IRL, who have a significant presence as highlighted here last month.

The latest in the Pure X range, the all new X4⁰, is on display along with the UK premiere of the X4⁶ and the popular X4³.

X-Yachts will have a significant presence at the upcoming Southampton International Boat Show, with two UK premieres from its Pure X range.

Leading the class is the all new X4⁰, the latest model in the Pure X range — blending quality, performance and styling with cruising capability — which was recently put through its paces in sea trials.

The two-cabin, one-heads option will be on display and available for test sailing after the show.

Another UK premiere (on display in its three-cabin, two-heads version) will be the X4⁶, a versatile, fast family cruiser with a powerful sail plan and well proportioned cockpit that puts you at the centre of the sailing experience.

Also on show (in its three-cabin, two-heads version) will be the X4³, the second model in the Pure X range, aimed at the discerning sailor and their crew.
