X-Yachts X 56

About this yacht

The X-Yachts X 56 represents a compelling proposition for discerning sailors seeking a capable bluewater cruiser without compromise. At 17.25 metres, this performance cruiser delivers the rare combination of serious offshore capability and refined onboard comfort, whether crossing oceans or island-hopping through the Mediterranean. Launched in 2020 and joining X-Yachts' Pure X range, the X 56 stands as the flagship of this acclaimed series. Her construction speaks to X-Yachts' commitment to advanced boatbuilding: the hull is epoxy-infused, a technology the Danish yard has refined since 2007 and now applies across its entire range. This process allows precise control over laminate properties, maximizing strength and stiffness while reducing weight. The hull undergoes a 24-hour high-temperature curing process, optimizing material performance and preventing surface degradation on darker hull finishes. Every gram saved in construction translates to enhanced stability, giving the crew a more comfortable, confident experience at sea. The CE (A) certification confirms this sailing yacht's ocean-going credentials, with a 2.90-metre draft providing the necessary grip for serious passages. The X 56 accommodates up to ten guests across three well-appointed cabins, making her equally suited to family cruising and extended voyages with friends. Danish design principles define the interior, where clean lines meet functional elegance. Flush deck hatches and coachroof windows flood the saloon with natural light, while large hull windows frame panoramic views. The standard Nordic Oak veneer—or optional teak—is hand-selected in Italy from premium marine suppliers, then finished with the meticulous craftsmanship X-Yachts is known for. The result is a yacht that feels both luxurious and practical, whether you're offshore or berthed in port. The sailplan reflects the flexibility built into the Pure X concept. The standard aluminium three-spreader mast features discontinuous rod rigging and racing turnbuckles, with carbon mast and furler boom options available. Owners can specify a self-tacking jib for easy shorthanded sailing or longitudinal genoa tracks for maximum performance—this racer-cruiser adapts to your priorities. A moulded bowsprit comes standard, enabling asymmetric spinnaker deployment and accommodating a Code-0 furler ahead of the forestay. The innovative bow design pushes both furlers forward, extending the J measurement to sharpen upwind performance. For sailors who demand both passage-making capability and refined living spaces, the X-Yachts X 56 delivers on every front.
