The Very First “X -Yachts” X-99 yacht was launched in 1985. The brainchild of designer Niels Jeppesen and an instant hit with the sailors of the world. Within a week of the initial launch 100 orders had been placed. Today the main concentrations of the over 500 X-99 launched will be found in Germany, Denmark, Switzerland, Holland Hong Kong and Japan. Whilst the X-99 yacht will sleep 4 on cushioned bunks make no mistake the deck and sails are laid out for racing. ROXY is hull number 201 of the over 500 boats sold and she run like thew wind. Roxy has been tuned to just off the standard One Design rule book and can easily be brought back to line up with the specification however the changes we have made allow her to regularly and quite easily attain speeds in excess of 14 knots. Roxy’s gear is in top condition and everything is regularly maintained. The X-99 has very strong roots set firmly in racing beliefs. With 5 degrees swept back stays you need not worry too much if you tack or gybe with the running back stays off however when you head upwind and winch on the back stay ROXY will head up at such a tiny angle of attack that she will turn many heads in disbelief. Getting to the top mark quickly is what those back stays are all about then when you turn the corner and head on downhill this down wind screamer will come to life. ROXY is stable platform with a lot of sail area, she will give you an exciting run for your money.
