X 402

Danish builder X-Yachts produced this capable 40-footer from 1984 to 1990, with 79 hulls launched during its production run. Designed by Niels Jeppesen, the X 402 represents the builder's commitment to combining performance with cruising comfort in a well-balanced package. The boat's moderate displacement of 13,200 pounds and generous sail area of 703 square feet create a responsive performer that excels in both coastal cruising and club racing scenarios. Her fractional sloop rig and fin keel configuration with spade rudder deliver crisp handling characteristics typical of European designs from this era. The substantial ballast-to-displacement ratio of over 50% provides excellent stability and stiff sailing in a blow. Built with fiberglass construction to X-Yachts' exacting Danish standards, the X 402 earned a reputation for solid build quality and attention to detail. The comfortable cockpit and well-appointed interior make extended coastal passages enjoyable, while her sailing characteristics satisfy performance-oriented sailors. With a low comfort ratio indicating a sportier nature, she bridges the gap between pure racers and heavy cruising boats. This design suits sailors seeking a well-built European yacht capable of spirited day sailing, weekend cruising, and competitive club racing in protected to moderate offshore conditions.
