As the first full aluminium XO, this modern walkaround boat marks a milestone in XO\u2019s product development.\u202f\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWe are proud to have been able to combine aluminium and high-end design to find and create the right methods to produce these aluminum boats with excellent price-quality ratio,\u201d says\u202f <\/span>Rabbe Nerdrum, <\/span><\/b>Sales Director<\/span>\u202f<\/span><\/b>of XO.\u202f\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u202f<\/span>In DFNDR A8, military-grade marine aluminum has taken the form of a sleek, modern daycruiser. The now-released Limited Edition model features a unique turquoise interior and hull accent color and is topped with \u20ac14,000 worth of premium gear such as a Simrad 16\u201d chart plotter and Mercury 300 hp V8 engine.\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u202f<\/span>\u201cThe boat can also be equipped with two 225 hp and one 450 hp motors, which makes it able to reach up to over 50 knots in speed\u201d, says Nerdrum.\u202f\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In addition to an exhilarating ride, the DFNDR A8 Limited Edition also offers outstanding onboard comfort. It has a built-in toilet and a refrigerator, panoramic glass roof, and the Softtech decking on all floors and sunbed areas on the bow.\u202f\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThis is an excellent sportboat for an active lifestyle. It also has space for overnight stay: the head and a berth for two under the foredeck\u201d, Nerdrum presents.\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The boat can be equipped with canopy walls, which allows the space to be used like a closed cabin. Webasto air conditioning or heating is as an optional extra.<\/span> \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The DFNDR A8 Limited Edition will be a rare beauty, as the number of these special boats made worldwide is only twenty. There is something special in the price tag, too: the Limited Edition is priced at just \u20ac99,900 + VAT (109 900 USD + VAT).\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cAs the premium gear bundle is included, I\u2019d say this is a chance of a lifetime to join the XO family.\u201d\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_single_image media=”1745″ media_width_percent=”100″ uncode_shortcode_id=”110247″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Special edition is available for a limited time at an exceptional price.\u202f\u202f\u00a0 \u202f\u00a0XO DFNDR A8, was introduced at the Cannes […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":1743,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[45],"class_list":["post-1739","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-dfndr-a8-limited-edition"],"yoast_head":"\n
