REVOLUTION is a spectacular example of an X4-6 that has been thoughtfully and comprehensively upgraded with all the required equipment and sails for both luxurious fast cruising and offshore racing. Set up for the 2022 Annapolis Bermuda race, REVOLUTION was unable to start due to a change in plans. Are you ready to blast off to Bermuda or is a luxurious coastal cruiser more your style? The Pure X line from X-Yachts does both with ease and many say the X4-6 is the one to have. Winner of 2020 Boat of the Year - Best Full Size Cruiser by Cruising World Magazine, REVOLUTION also took line honors at the 2021 St. Mary’s Governor’s Cup race. She is in stunning condition and available now. What are you waiting for? Highly Recommended.
The hull design of the X4⁶ follows the latest design philosophy which maximises sailing performance. Designed to excel in all wind conditions due to a generous sail plan coupled to a high quality mast and rig, including discontinuous rod rigging as standard.
X4⁶ hulls are built with X-Yachts' advanced technology, including vacuum epoxy infusion, and incorporating X-Yachts' famous steel keel grillage to securely hold the composite lead/iron keel in place for outstanding safety in all conditions.
Each of the upgraded Carbonautica black composite wheels is connected to its own quadrant with a completely independent wire system. This built in redundancy is an excellent safety feature and virtually removes the need for an emergency tiller. The high aspect ratio rudder is perfectly balanced to make the X4⁶ agile and responsive.
Teak can be found throughout the cockpit, on the seats, the sole, the removable cockpit table as well as on the electrical operated bathing platform.
Recessed track for selftacking jib
Jib tracks and winches added for overlapping jib and racing sails
Designed for sailing in comfort and at ease, with a deck recessed track for a selftacking jib. The sheet for the 97% jib is lead back to a halyard winch.
longitudinal Genoa tracks on top of the coachroof allow the use of a 106% overlapping genoa, maximising the X4⁶'s light wind performance.
The starboard-side cockpit bench houses a dedicated locker which can accommodate a 6 or 8 person liferaft.
Lazarette Locker
In addition to the spacious sail locker in the bow, two cockpit floor hatches aft of the wheels give access to the huge lazarettes (where a generator could be installed if desired).
The influence of clean Scandinavian design and Nordic oak can be seen throughout the interior of the X4⁶ being both traditional but with a modern appearance. The Danish quality craftsmanship is of a very high standard with finely crafted details, and showcases carpentry at its very best.
The toughened glass coachroof windows flood the interior with natural light. In addition to the large flush skylights, sections of the side windows are also open-able to provide excellent ventilation. Each aft cabin has an open-able portlight in the cockpit and additionally an outboard facing opening in the coaming windows. Combined with the flush skylight, the aft cabins have optimal ventilation, a great benefit in warmer climates.
The X4⁶ has an ultra-modern common-rail Yanmar diesel engine delivering 57 hp. The engine compartment is sound insulated to 'Super Yacht' specification, using a heavy 8mm solid rubber layer, 50mm of sound deadening rockwool and finally covered with a perforated aluminium plating. All openings are sealed to eliminate noise.
The engine has a 3 blade folding propeller to minimize drag and maximize sailing performance. A diesel fuel cooler has been added for longer passages.
