Introducing the Focus 5X

The Focus 5X is a 16.5-metre performance craft, which its builders state is designed for owners seeking a balance of power, flexibility, and individual expression. Combining refined exterior styling with adaptable deck architecture, it represents the next step in Focus Motor Yachts’ approach to modern performance cruising. 

Exterior design and hull architecture

The exterior of the Focus 5X is defined by precision engineering and clean, timeless lines. A deep-V hull paired with a wide 4.43-metre beam delivers stability and confident performance across a wide range of conditions. Sharp, sculpted surfaces give the yacht a strong yet elegant stance on the water, reinforcing its purposeful character.

Convertible deck and on-board functionality

Designed around adaptability, the deck layout allows the Focus 5X to transform quickly to suit changing conditions or owner preferences. Hydraulic side windows, an electric sliding glass roof, and a fully convertible deck enable seamless transition from open day-boat to enclosed cockpit yacht, providing protection, privacy, or open-air enjoyment as required. 

At the stern, a full-width hydraulic swim platform offers easy access to the sea or shore. An integrated dinghy garage allows straightforward tender launch and recovery, combining practicality with clean deck aesthetics.

Personalisation as standard

Personalisation is included as standard on every Focus 5X, with no distinction between core specification and optional extras. Owners can define exterior colours, interior wood finishes, Flexiteek decking style, upholstery materials, and metal finishes for rails and fixtures. 

Each yacht begins with a dedicated design consultation, forming the foundation of a collaborative process where details are refined and finalised throughout the build. 

Technical overview

The Focus 5X measures 16.50 metres in length with fuel capacity of 2,500 litres and fresh water capacity of 450 litres. Accommodation is available in two or three cabin layouts, with three bathrooms. The yacht is certified to CE and ABYC standards and falls within Design Category B. 

Engine options include twin Volvo Penta D11 IPS 950 pod drives or twin MAN I6 850 shaft drives.
