Designer Tom Barry-Cotter said the Sydney Weekender crew were very impressed with the new sport yacht, the second in the X series range.

“The fact that Channel 7 and the Sydney Weekender crew chose to preview the X50 speaks volumes about the uniqueness of this boat when you look at all the vessels that it could have chosen to preview ahead of the show.”
