The vision behind the design was to create a sporty and simple yacht to sail, with extremely pleasing lines. Below deck she provides comforts suitable not only for the crew after racing, but also for the active family during a weekend trip or for holiday cruising.

One Design Classes
The new X-35 One Design followed the traditions of the X-79 and X-99, as popular large fleet one-design racers and, during 2006, the first hundred X-35s were racing around the world. In 2007, the bigger sister, the X-41, will start building another X-Yachts one design class.
Today the yard is headed by Managing Director Lars Netterstrom and the three founders.
PERFORMANCE
The X-35 is not only designed to perform in close fleet racing, but also as a fast sailing yacht during summer cruises. She proves this time and time again, and gives her owner and crew much pleasure in ail conditions.
Her hull, keel and rudder configuration gives the helms-man a very light and direct feel of the yacht, and she responds immediately to minor corrections. The sail plan, with the powerful main sail and 106% max jib, has the ability to accelerate the X-35 out of tacks, and keep her in the fast lane upwind. The non-overlapping jib makes it easy for a shorthanded crew or family to sail the X-35, and an optional furling headstay converts the X-35 into a family friendly yacht.
Hoisting the spinnaker downwind will bring a smile to the face of any sailor who likes to be on board a yacht that needs little encouragement to step up a gear or two.
