X-Yachts launched their Xc 47 in 2023 as part of their celebrated cruising line, bringing Danish precision engineering to the performance cruising market. This 49.90-foot sailboat strikes an impressive balance between spirited sailing characteristics and long-distance comfort, making it equally suited for competitive coastal racing and extended offshore passages. The hull features X-Yachts' signature fin keel with bulb configuration paired with a spade rudder, delivering responsive handling and excellent windward performance. At 31,967 pounds displacement with 12,103 pounds of ballast, the boat carries enough weight for stability in challenging conditions while maintaining the relatively light feel that X-Yachts is renowned for. The fractional sloop rig provides versatile sail handling options and reduces weather helm in heavy air. Built with high-quality GRP construction in Denmark, the Xc 47 reflects X-Yachts' reputation for meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail. The comfort ratio of 29.77 indicates a moderate motion at sea, while the capsize screening formula of 1.89 suggests good stability for offshore work. With an 80-horsepower engine and theoretical hull speed of 8.81 knots, this yacht appeals to sailors seeking performance-oriented cruising with racing pedigree.
