The crack was considered radical at the time, and the width still is today
30 years ago, the X-79 launched the Danish shipyard X-Yachts on the road to continued success. Today, the small racers are still in demand on the used boat market

The X-79 is an all-rounder for sporty sailors. The boat is easy to trailer, offers an active regatta scene and plenty of space on board, even for longer trips. It is solidly built and retains its value with care
