We are still in designing proces.
The final design will be finished end of januari i hope.
Then the plugs will be milled and moulds will be fabricated.
There are two models, a 7.7m and a 8.8m rib with sterndrive.
This picture is a rendering of a first impression of the 7.6m model.
I was interrested in your comments.
When i have the final designs i will post them.
hopefully the firtst X Craft will be touching water end of april.
And thank you all(?) for the warm welkom.

I think it looks really good but I'm no expert!

How much room is there between the jockeys? Something I've noticed on most people's boats is that you're struggling not to stand on other people's feet while standing up under way. Maybe having the slanted jockey bases facing forward would mean more comfort in rough weather?

Not sure how you get any of that from the drawing - very pretty though!
