The SX crossover series mixes the characteristics of a small explorer yacht and a flybridge yacht. The result is an original looking vessel.

The new SX72 was designed by Zuccon International and has similar looks with the SX88 flagship. Several interior layouts will be available. Power will be provided by two Volvo Penta IPS 1050 diesel engines for a top speed of 22 knots and a cruising speed of 20 knots.
