True to its initial design concept, the aim with the brand new XO17 was to create a Grand Touring Kayak at a truly competitive price. A full sized, spacious, and comfortable luxury touring kayak with great stability, huge carrying capacity, style and most importantly – performance to match. Every Point 65 composite kayak is hand-built to exceptional standards by some of the best boat builders and craftspeople in the kayak industry. The iconic foredeck-taper preventing paddle interference, is a design characteristic for all Point 65°N kayaks which with the XO17s 62cm/24,5¨ beam, is an obvious advantage for efficient paddling strokes. The well defined chines allow for easier turning and a strong secondary stability. The low aft deck design of the XO17 offers reduced windage, while the gentle, V-shaped hull creates a fast, straight tracking glide and makes the kayak stable, safe and dry.

The XO17s large oval cock pit for comfortable re-entry and is standard equipped with individually contained 20cm day hatch - as well as a super-comfy back rest, an ergonomically designed seat, a retractable skeg and easy and quick adjustable foot braces. It is available with an optional, ingenious rudder and rudder control system. The Point65 XO17 – agile, tasteful, impeccably mannered, queen of the flagships.
