Clare Lallow of Cowes are close to signing contracts to build two new new X One Design boats. The XOD has proved one of the most popular fleet sailed one design day boats on the south coast with over 80 boats racing at Cowes Week this year. The class is close to its centenary year and is currently undergoing renewed interest due to the highly competitive racing at a relatively low cost. The new boats will have mahogany planking, iroko deadwood and stem and horn timber in oak. The boats are not cheap, at £42,500 + vat, but with some of the early boats now nearly a hundred years old a very good long term investment!
