Xcel Yachts is a very recent brand, offering a 70-foot multiyacht scheduled for launch in 2025.
The Riviera shipyard, commissioned to build the first example, is a well-known yard in the Middle East, having been founded in 1976. Riviera runs a large service and repair center and builds boats for many brands. While the hulls of this Xcel 70 adopt a very classic design with traditional bow slopes (note the now very unusual 4-meter overhangs, i.e. 17% of the total length), the layout should be far more surprising, blending grand luxury with minimalist Italian design. In addition to the two crew berths, 4 or 5 double cabins will be available. The main characteristics, with the exception of the powertrain, have just been unveiled by the shipyard.
