XO EXPLR 44 – Aluminium Adventure Yacht Built for Serious Ocean Explorers
Winner of the 2025 European Best of Boats Award (Best Big Boat), the XO EXPLR 44 is the ultimate Nordic-designed adventure and expedition yacht, setting a new benchmark for offshore performance, build quality, and all-weather confidence.
Built by XO Boats, the EXPLR 44 combines luxury, durability, and performance, giving true ocean explorers the freedom to travel from the ice-covered seas of Scandinavia to the Atlantic and Pacific, while enjoying the comfort of a high-end adventure yacht.
Purpose-Built for Serious Boaters
Constructed from military-grade aluminium like the world’s finest superyachts, the EXPLR 44 offers unmatched strength, rigidity, and seaworthiness. Its 8mm stringers and 5mm hull absorb vibrations and shocks, delivering smooth, confident handling in even the roughest conditions. Outboard engine options from 900 hp to 1350 hp provide exhilarating performance for any adventure.
Advanced Stability and Ride
Standard Seakeeper Ride and Vessel Attitude Control System (VACS) optimise boat attitude, providing a smoother, more stable ride, effortless control, and enhanced comfort — no matter the sea conditions.
Comfort and Versatility for Offshore Adventures
The EXPLR 44 is designed for extended exploration. Its owner cabin features a large double bed, head, shower, ample headroom, and practical yet stylish detailing. The aft cabin offers flexible layouts — comfortable atrium, two singles, or a double with its own head — plus an additional bunk in the pilothouse. Cleverly designed large rear-facing windowsmake the aft cabin a bright, private lounge space. Even fully occupied, access throughout the boat remains free and convenient.
With large fuel capacity, the EXPLR 44 provides excellent range, allowing adventures from Miami to the Bahamas or the French Riviera to Corsica with confidence.

The Reviews
Yacht Magazine
Exterior styling on the XO EXPLR 44 is aggressive, giving off a vibe similar to military-inspired expedition yachts that are capable of cruising the polar regions. The angular shapes should look formidable entering just about any harbor.
