Ideal Boat, one of the UK’s main suppliers of high-quality sports craft, have announced their recent agreement to exclusively represent the XO range of aluminium-hulled, all-weather craft. Neville Williams, Ideal Boat MD, told PBR: ‘I am delighted to announce we have been appointed as the sole distributor for XO Boats in the British Isles. This is one of the world’s most respected offshore boat brands, known for its great ability and quality of build. The XO also provides the perfect complement to our existing line-up of leading American and Scandinavian performance craft.’
XO Boats were born and developed in the Finnish Archipelago, where conditions, by anyone’s standard, are exceptionally harsh. Designed for the offshore environment, XOs are built in Poland using military-grade hulls and have pedigrees to match, which provides leisure owners with the reassurance that they can go boating all year round in comfort and safety, no matter what the weather.
