X-YACHTS XP-44 BARRACUDA

The X-Yachts XP-44 BARRACUDA is a pre-owned sailboat that represents the balance between Scandinavian elegance and high-level nautical performance. Built in 2021 by the renowned Danish shipyard X-Yachts, this model embodies the brand's reputation for precision engineering, functional design, and luxurious finishes. With a length of 13.29 meters, a beam of 4.07 meters, and a draft of 2.65 meters, it stands out as an ideal sailboat for both demanding sailors and those looking to explore high-performance sailing without sacrificing comfort and safety.
The X-Yachts brand is an international benchmark in the construction of cruising-racing sailboats, recognized for its innovation and quality for decades. The XP-44 model, designed by Niels Jeppesen and the X-Yachts team, stands out for offering modern lines and an unusual combination of agility, speed, and onboard comfort. The BARRACUDA, in particular, features an attractive dark gray hull that enhances its sporty and sophisticated personality, while its deep T-keel maximizes stability and hydrodynamic efficiency, key for those who enjoy both long passages and competition.
Located in the city of Barcelona, within the eponymous province, this sailboat benefits from being in one of the most active nautical areas of the Mediterranean. The proximity to top-tier ports and the possibility of enjoying routes to the Balearic Islands, the Costa Brava, or the south of France make Barcelona a strategic enclave for those wishing to take full advantage of a boat of these characteristics.
In terms of sailing, the XP-44 BARRACUDA is equipped to meet the expectations of those seeking sensations at the helm while also allowing for easy management of maneuvers. The performance-oriented deck features high-level sail handling systems, with six Harken winches (including one electric for halyards), Ronstan hardware, and a carbon bowsprit to optimize maneuverability and the use of advanced headsails like the Code 0. The Profurl below-deck furling system and the Grand Prix spinnaker barber-hauler demonstrate its sporting vocation, while the bow thruster facilitates maneuvering in port, providing safety and control in tight spaces.
The sail plan meets high demands: a 2021 Elvstrom carbon mainsail and genoa, accompanied by a Code 0 with a Karver furler and the possibility of mounting an asymmetric spinnaker, allowing for configuration adaptation to different wind conditions and sailing styles, whether fast cruising or racing. The mast and boom, both made of John Mast aluminum, incorporate details such as a hydraulic cylinder for the backstay and a lazy jack system, facilitating maneuvers and sail trimming.
Inside, this sailboat reveals a cozy and contemporary atmosphere, thanks to the layout of three cabins and two electric bathrooms, as well as a salon height of 1.95 meters that enhances the feeling of space. The main cabin, located at the bow, features an upgraded spring mattress, while the two aft cabins have additional berths, allowing for a total of six sleeping places. The wooden carpentry, black Corian countertops, the chart table oriented towards the stern, and the teak imitation flooring reflect attention to detail and quality finishes.
Onboard comfort is ensured with a five-outlet Eberspacher D5 heating system, air conditioning in the salon and the owner's cabin, hot water, and a fully equipped kitchen with a front-opening refrigerator, 230 V microwave, and gas detector with alarm. Autonomy is reinforced with generous tanks: 350 liters of drinking water, 200 liters of diesel, and a water maker installed in 2023, allowing for long passages with complete peace of mind.
Regarding electronics and safety, the B&G package includes GPS, autopilot, plotters, Triton2 instruments, AIS, fixed and waterproof portable VHF radios, as well as an EPIRB and two Viking lifeboats for six people each. The equipment is completed with automatic life jackets, fire extinguishers, distress signals, and radar reflectors, complying with CE Category A – Ocean certification, the highest for sailboats suitable for offshore navigation.
The X-Yachts XP-44 BARRACUDA is a sailboat that will appeal to both sporty sailors and families looking for a reliable and versatile boat to explore the Mediterranean and tackle ocean challenges. Its combination of advanced engineering, high-end equipment, and interior comfort makes it an outstanding choice for those who value quality and prestige in every voyage. Located in Barcelona, this pre-owned sailboat is ready to offer new sailing experiences to its next discerning owner.
