the perfect entry to the group of XO trailblazers

With twin engines, agile XO DFNDR 8 can reach +50 knots of speed. Although the boat is smaller than other recent XO models it still maintains the uncompromising attitude and resilience of a true XO. This boat is the perfect entry to the group of XO trailblazers for those who want to take their boating to the next level.  

Optimal engine recommendations start from 300 hp, but the boat can easily handle 450 hp single V8 or Twin 225 V6 engines. The XO DFNDR 8 can host up to 8 passengers for day trips and fun expeditions.

Following and adapting the design philosophies of yacht design, XO DFNDR 8 is made of aluminium, just like the some of the most prestigious superyachts of the world. This makes DFNDR 8 excellent choice for tender use alongside superyachts, since it has the same spirit and DNA as its core.
