With a length of 23.5 meters (77' 2"), this catamaran combines grandeur and elegance, showcasing the company's unwavering commitment to excellence. Its thoughtfully distributed size ensures a balanced and comfortable onboard experience, perfect for long voyages and social gatherings alike.

The deck of the Xcel 70 reveals an expansive, teak-clad surface designed for relaxation and entertainment.

The flybridge, the largest in its class at 80 square meters, offers customization options to meet various needs, featuring cutting-edge navigation systems and luxurious leather seating.

The standard boat features Diesel engine but optionally is foreseen the eco-friendly hybrid propulsion system, which combines traditional diesel power with an electric motor, making this vessel fuel-efficient despite its size. This forward-thinking approach aligns with growing environmental considerations in the yachting world.

Designed to tackle adverse weather conditions, the Xcel 70 boasts a robust hull and structure, ensuring passenger comfort and safety even in intense winds and high waves.
