Overview:

The XR 41 - Where performance meets innovation

The development of the new XR is still at an early stage, but the vision and ambition are clear: The XR will be a winner, and therefore the X-Yachts in-house design team partnered up with some of the world’s most experienced companies and racers to reach that goal!

The partners will be working closely with the X-Yachts design team, and together they will design and build a race boat with winning potential for all major championships and regattas in ORC and potentially IRC.

Designing successful race winners under ORC and IRC is not new to X-Yachts. Take for example the, Xp 44, X-41, IMX 38, IMX 40 and IMX 45, that were all dominating on the race course for years - and still is. Just like these legendary models, the XR will also have a certain degree of cruising inheritance for the sporty family.

THE STERN IS FAIRLY V-SHAPED

The XR 41 has a hull with shallow volume, not much rocker, volume quite evenly distributed longships and with quite a bit of overhang, especially at the bow. The stern is fairly V-shaped, with the centerline barely touching the water surface. The hull is really wide for a 12-metre
boat: The maximum beam is 4.18 meters. The boat has a moderate draft of 2.4 m. which allows for racing in almost any waters.

ORC CATEGORY B

The strategy has been to focus specifically on ORC category B, and to position the boat in the fastest end of that fleet. It’s very important to get a free lane right off the start line, and to achieve that, you need to be one of the fastest boats upwind in the category.

A raw racer normally has a short life and loses value after a few years. The XR 41 is designed to win races for many years and also to be used for sporty family sailing for decades. All X-Yachts is built to last decades. To accommodate this, the XR 41 has parts of the interior in modules, that can be removed for racing and installed for cruising – for example parts of the galley and the lockers in the aft and front cabins. Deck layout is obviously set up for racing with a full crew, but it’s also designed to work for shorthanded, and even singlehanded sailing.

NO ‘ONE DESIGN’ CLASS

Focus has been on the rating aspect in the XR project, including the tricky question of how to address and meet rule changes in the coming years. The hull shape may not be changed, but the keel, sail plan, rigging, rudder, displacement and several other things can be adapted.
This counts for not making the XR a one design race boat. When it comes to the hull itself, it is only logic to allow some slack to the limits. If measurements were right on the edge, we could easily find ourselves on the wrong side a year or two from now.

The XR 41 will come in two versions: Race and sport. The racing version will have square top main and split backstay, while the sporty cruising version will come with a bit smaller sail area, pinhead main and single backstay.

The keel can be delivered in a couple of different drafts, but 2.40m is the standard. For flying sails, the main focus is asymmetric – that’s what the boat is set up for, with a relatively long bow sprit.
