X-yachts Imx 45 (2002) For sale

XO is a stunning IMX 45 designed by X-Yachts and naval architect Niels Jeppesen. This sailboat perfectly combines performance and comfort. Ideal for IRC racing, she was meticulously refurbished in 2025 after more than 7 years without sailing. It also has a very good IRC rating. Its design and equipment also make it an excellent choice for fast cruising and ocean sailing.
The interior of XO was completely renovated in 2025. It is simple, spacious and functional, accommodating up to 8 people. It has a comfortable living room, a large chart table on the port side and a U-shaped galley on the starboard side with a double sink, a new gas stove and a fridge. The woodwork was renovated and then varnished or painted white to give more light to the interior.
The layout includes three cabins, including a forward cabin with a double bed, two aft cabins, each with a double bed and a frame bunk, as well as additional sleeping options in the saloon. The table in the saloon will easily accommodate 8 people. A shower room, with a renovated shower and toilet, is located forward of the saloon on the starboard side.
The mast, boom and pole are made of carbon and the standing rigging is made of rod. The latter was replaced in 2018 and has not covered more than a hundred miles since then. The mast jack was renovated in 2025. The boat's wardrobe is made up of 2 mainsails (1 Dacron which has only been used for one day and 1 in slightly older fibre), 4 genoa (1 very clean on carabiners and 3 others on boltropes and therefore not usable on the boat at the moment), 1 solent (also on ropes) and finally 3 spinnakers in very good condition, 1 of which is asymmetrical.
The electronics are original but controlled and functional. To be changed probably according to the future owner's program. The boat does not have a windlass at the moment but it is possible to add one that could be part of the negotiations on the price and the additional services desired.
