XO may be a relatively new boat-builder, but we found one of their boats at the Dusseldorf Boat Show—and immediately saw why this Scandinavian company will probably be around for a long, long time. The boat looks great, and with a single 300 HP diesel inboard, it cruises at around 25 knots. Here's a look into the cabin with its stand-up head, and some construction details.


An outboard version of the XO 270 RS is on the way, and we're betting that this builder is going to make some waves.
