READY FOR A ROUGH RIDE
With its completely new concept, the XO DFNDR 8 is a true innovation, pushing the ideas of adaptability and configuration to the next level.
Launching in September 2022, the intelligent features of its design are what makes the boat distinctively versatile: with the various alternative options, you can semi customize the boat for your unique needs. For example, the open version can be configured to a more enclosed cabin boat by choosing the fixed side windows as extras.
“What sets the new DFNDR 8 apart from the competitors is definitely the phenomenal driving qualities under rough weather conditions."
Step to the Wild Side
The DFNDR 8 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.
XO's most distinquished feature is its one of a kind military grade aluminium hull, which is sustainable, sturdy and robust, and easy to maintain. These advantages along with the deep-v hull create a boat unlike any others.
For the commuters and sport fishers, there is spacious storage under the raised mid-deck floor and an option to have a cabin aft wall with a sliding door. The XO DFNDR 8 can be adjusted for sport fishing, day cruising, or commuting in rough weather.
It comes with a separate head, and the seating area of DFNDR 8 follows the principle of a walkthrough boat layout, with a raised mid-level deck on the bow that can turn into a full-sized sun bed.
Passenger seats in the saloon can be easily converted into a bed for two, enabling overnight use during longer journeys.
When equiped with double engines, agile XO DFNDR 8 can reach +50 knots of speed.
