Build And Structure

The hull of the vessel as well as the main deck, upper deck and bulkheads are constructed using the vacuum infusion technique.

The construction of the hull with reinforcements is infused in a single piece to reach a better interlaminar adhesion, greater structural strength and a reduction in weight.

The manufacture of the superstructure improves this process by achieving a structure made 100% of carbon fibre and epoxy resin, in a single vacuum infusion with the same reinforcement procedure. The scantling of the X1 is composed only of quadraxial and unidirectional fabrics, excluding the mat type fibres from the scheme. PVC core is used both in reinforcements and in the hull. A high temperature core resistant is used in areas of direct sunlight.

The construction is completed with a vinylester resin for wetting 100% of the fibres in the hull and an epoxy resin for the upper deck, bulkheads and the rest of the boat.

All structural calculations are based on Lloyd's Register of Shipping regulations.

The hull of the X1 is also coated with an ISO-NPG gel coat of RAL 7016 similar to the colour of the final finish.

The boat has a complete painted scheme in AWL GRIP.

- The X1 comes as standard with either 2 x VOLVO PENTA D4 300 HP engines (sailboat version)) or IPS 500 (motorboat version).

- Higher power engines up to IPS 900 can be installed.

- Two lines of conventional shafts with ceramic seal refrigerated by water.

- TEIGNBRIDGE adjustable pitch propellers made of aluminium and bronze.

The propellers provide the X1 with optimum performance with reduced noise, minimal vibrations and greater fuel savings, when compared to other propellers on the market. There is also a controllable pitch system to adapt to sailing or motoring.

- Integrated VOLVO PENTA glass cockpit system, with two touch screens on the bridge that simplifies the navigation system, as well as integrating all information in one place.

- The compartments of the main engine are equipped with forced ventilation as well as thermo-acoustic insulation.

Rigging (sailboat Version)

The main rigging consists of two parts:

- Furling mast

- Self-tacking jib

Both sails are assisted by an electronic system that will manage the BAMAR captive winches as well as the mainsail furling sheet, jib furling and mainsheets

- The configuration of rigging is designed with the premise that the boat can be crewed with only one person and from the bridge.

- The SPARCRAFT furling mast, is made of aluminium and finished in glossy black.

Deck Equipment

The LEWMAR electric windlass in stainless steel is located in the central hull at the bow of the boat, with 14 mm chain and remote control.

- Mooring and towing lines suitable for X1’s navigation category.

- Four high-power universal chargers of 150 Ah, achieving a battery-charging time of only 3.5 hours.

- The battery bank is composed of 24 Lithium units of 160 Ah each 12 v, giving a total power of 50 kw.

- 2 kw of capacity in integrated solar panels on the upper deck.

With the exception of the owner's cabin, the main deck is on a single level, running the length of the boat and is distributed across three areas:

- Owner´s cabin

- Two VIP cabins & Two crew cabins

- 72 m2 large open space with living room and kitchen.

The owner´s cabin is divided into three levels:

Hanstaiger X1, a trimaran with the appearance of a spaceship sold in 3 copies

Large trimarans with habitable sails are rare on the market. The Palma Boat Show 2022 was the opportunity to discover a newcomer on the market, Hanstaiger, a shipyard created in 2015 whose first model, the X1, is a trimaran with a strange air of space ship.

High-end infusion and carbon construction

The Hanstaiger X1 is a limited edition trimaran that will be produced in only 3 copies. The shipyard based in Alicante, Spain , even assures that it will deconstruct the hull molds. With a length of 19.72 m, the multihull has a beam of 10 m, a displacement of 40 tons and a draft of 0.92 m thanks to its retractable centerboard. The hull is built in one piece, in infusion with a composite of vinylester, carbon fiber and Kevlar. The superstructure is made of carbon fiber and epoxy resin. If the construction method corresponds to the standards expected in high-end yachting , the design is quite striking.

Glazing in large quantities

The hulls are very high on the water and the shapes chosen for the design are angular, with sculpted surfaces. The ratio of glass to structure is also very important, as many glass surfaces are integrated into the superstructure and the roof. The result is a very bright interior.

A protected helm station

The Hanstaiger X1 is available as a sail or motor version. In the first configuration, the 245 m² sail area is modest for its size. In comparison, a Neel 65, of the same size, but lighter by about 10 tons, has 207 m² of sail area. The automated rigging is composed of a furling mast and a self-tacking jib. The sails are all electrically assisted: mainsheet, furling foceuros while hydraulic captive winches are hidden under the deck, in a sort of closed cockpit reminiscent of a fighter pilot.

This protected helm station positioned at the foot of the mast opens in good weather and provides protection in rough seas. It is the same on both versions. Three touch screens allow to manage all the navigation elements, on which are retransmitted the images captured by the 12 cameras installed on the trimaran . The shipyard assures that such an arrangement of the helm station allows to sail solo on the sailing version. This is reminiscent of the increasingly protected cockpits built into the heart of ocean racing boats.

A large flybridge

The upper deck has two wide gangways for moving around the boat . The large central flybridge of 50 m2 is equipped with sun loungers, sofas, an individual glass spa, a barbecue area and a central table for 10 people.

Sail or motor version

The sail version receives 2 Volvo D4-300 engines and the engine version 2 Volvo IPS 500, with a maximum option of 900 hp. The announced speeds are 20 knots under sail and 30 knots for the engine version.

Navigate independently

Approved in category A, the Hanstaiger X1 offers an autonomy of 600 miles (under engine) thanks to large fuel tanks: 1,600 L for the sail version, 7,000 L for the engine version. 1,200 L of water tanks and a 280 L/h watermaker ensure the water autonomy. Finally, solar panels integrated into the superstructure and a 50 kWh battery pack allow the boat to operate for several hours without using the generator.

80% of the interior space positioned on the main deck

The interior living space is 152 m2 (including a 72 m2 salon), the exterior is 77 m2, including a central flybridge of 35 m2 and a large extendable beach club of 25 m2. A design element that we are more used to seeing on large motor superyachts.

The headroom is impressive - between 2.3 and 3.2 meters - and 80% of the living space is on the main deck. All windows are "intelligent" and can be adapted to the owner's wishes: protection against heat, privacy

On either side of the central staircase are a fully equipped kitchen with ice maker and wine cellar and a cozy living room with large screen TV. The owner's cabin is spread over several levels. There is a 2x1.7 m bed on the bow and a desk on the stern, a bathroom with two sinks, a dressing table and a shower/hydromassage sauna. On the lower level, there is a large dressing room and an independent bathroom.

The port cabin has a central bed facing the sea, a sofa, a bathroom with a glass wall for privacy. Finally, the starboard cabin offers two separate beds, a dressing room and a private shower room.

The hulls house the engine holds, the batteries, the tanks or the tender garage and the laundry room.

Three copies for sale

The Hanstaiger X1 is a semi-custom boat, some elements of which can be adapted to the owner's desires: number of cabins, flybridge layout, colors or materials. The marketing has been entrusted to the broker Northrop and Johnson and the price has been set at 4,250,000 euros.

Polarising designs : Ugly or awesome? Trimaran Hanstaiger X1

 ·  11.04.2024

A boat like this could be straight out of a Batman film. The Hanstaiger X1 trimaran, manufactured in Spain, is bursting with unique features. This includes not only the central living area, which is modelled on a cathedral, but also a cockpit that is reminiscent of the interior of a spaceship. The first model of the X1 type can also be chartered exclusively for sailing. The quoted price is around 4.5 million euros.

More polarising designs:

• Ace 30: First pictures from the test of the hot offshore racer
• Sunbeam 32.1: bold shapes, smart solutions
• Revolution 29 - a boat doesn't have to be pointed at the front

Hanstaiger X1 under sail or engine

The Hanstaiger X1 is offered in two versions, as a sailing yacht and as a motorboat. The sailing boat version is designed to reach speeds of up to 20 knots. The motorboat version should be able to reach up to 30 knots thanks to the more powerful engines. The sailboat is operated solely via electric winches.

Only three boats are to be built in total. The shipyard has not announced whether there is already a successor to the first boat.

The interior of the Hanstaiger X1 is designed like a luxury home. Thanks to the glass roof construction and the oversized side windows, natural light should flood into all areas of the boat. The layout is open-plan so that the crew can move around easily. The bathrooms alone would do credit to many hotels, considering the space, functionality and equipment that can be seen in the photos.

The Hanstaiger X1 offers a 70 square metre lounge area that can be converted into a beach club, with an additional 25 square metre deck and swimming platform extension. The ceiling heights range from 2.3 to 3.2 metres. The owner's cabin is over 30 square metres in size. The flybridge is almost 35 square metres. 80 percent of the interior space is on one level.

Is the Hanstaiger X1 a greenhouse?

The many and sometimes large glass surfaces are a unique feature of the trimaran. However, they should not pose a problem in terms of heat build-up. To regulate the interior temperature and ensure privacy, the windows are equipped with intelligent glass technology that makes it possible to regulate and dim the sunlight entering the interior of the boat. Four large windows can be opened, which further enhances the beach club experience in the lounge.

A specially developed electrical system has massive 50 kW lithium batteries and thus the power to run the boat for hours without having to resort to the generator.

Another highlight of the Hanstaiger X1 is the helm station. It is reminiscent of the cockpit of a fighter plane and can be opened in good weather. The helmsman can monitor the boat via twelve cameras. However, there is no mention of an ejection seat on the shipyard website.

Hull length 19.72 m; width 10.00 m; weight 40.0 tonnes; sail area 245.5 m²

Unusual boats: trimaran Hanstaiger X1

The unique and stunning Hanstaiger X1 is almost certainly unparalleled and will not be unparalleled for the foreseeable future. This trimaran exists in only three copies and differs from its counterparts in its unique appearance and incredible decoration inside.

What is the Hanstaiger X1?

The boat's creator, John Ordovas, describes the trimaran as a cross between Lamborghini stuffing, the power of a fighter jet, and the luxury of a hotel's VIP room. Despite some pretentiousness of the statement, it is difficult to disagree with it. The trimaran Hanstaiger X1 is so beautiful and strange that it justifies the words of the creator.

The result is a trimaran that has about 85% of interior space on one level, reminiscent of a spacious, loft-style city apartment. 

This is a bold design, because all the interior space is obtained by extending the superstructure to the very stern of the vessel. John shares his impressions: “It had some risky elements. We have removed the deck and cockpit in the usual sense. This is one of the design features that I am most proud of.

Instead of a classic cockpit, we have something like a “cockpit”. Yes, this is still the same bridge, even the cockpit, but, in my understanding, on such a trimaran, especially considering its design, there should be exactly the “cockpit” like on airplanes. You see, my grandfather and father were pilots, I fly myself. And I know how important the review is. That is why the cockpit is glazed and has the greatest possible view.”

Video about Hanstaiger X1

Design features Hanstaiger X1

According to the creator, the boat was specially designed so that there was no need to go to the bow. All boat and sail controls are located as close as possible to the cockpit or within walking distance from it. All winches, locking system, mainsail and staysail lifting - everything works on electronics. There is little rigging on deck.

Although this is clearly not a boat for the yachtsman who likes to tinker with the boat and rigging, performance was still a key parameter.

During the first sea trials off the coast of Alicante, where the shipyard is based, in difficult conditions, the yacht easily reached a speed of 15 knots only under the mainsail and staysail. John boasts: “My pride is being able to set the sails with a single button.”

Hull and sails Hanstaiger X1

X1 is equipped with a lifting daggerboard. A full keel was abandoned. The cases were created on the basis of a mixture of carbon foam and glass. The superstructure is completely made of carbon fiber. This kept the weight to a minimum, but the design is not light at 40 tons.

It is currently not possible to mount a large sail for sailing in light winds. However, John Ordovas says there is nothing in the design of the yacht that could prevent this.

In addition, John has been working on a dynamic stabilization system for a long time. The development of this technology will receive the Martini 7.0 catamaran, which we talked about here .

The essence of the technology is reduced to a complex gyroscopic system that “extinguishes” rolling on the water. The system works like flaps on an airplane wing.

Salon and decoration

In a way, focusing on the X1's performance is like looking at the sound system in a Bentley. It is from the salon on this yacht that it takes your breath away. The bold and unusual layout of the living quarters will also not leave you indifferent.

Salon area of 70 square meters is simply huge. The height of the cabin is some incredible 3 meters. Given these factors, the interior really feels impressive. 

The galley is more like an open plan designer kitchen, with a dining table for eight and fine Italian furniture. 

But the main feature is the transom. More precisely, how it opens completely, and a huge bathing platform descends down. It turns out an impressive recreation area with an area of \u200b\u200babout 30 square meters.

Summing up all the features, we get a yacht that, at the touch of a button, can become one continuous living space.

We need energy!

All this luxury, of course, requires energy. Lots of energy. 2-3 kW of solar panels are built into the boat's hull. It is possible to install a pair of wind turbines.

For a quiet night's sleep, there is a 50 kW lithium-ion battery. To support all this, two 8.6kW generator sets are needed, along with two 165kW Volvo Pentas. 

Hanstaiger X1, X2, X3…

John Ordovas was very surprised that there was a demand for X1. At once, several dozen people passionately desired this trimaran. So John ventured a little cheat. “Initially, it was not expected that there would be many boats. First, it destroys the exclusivity of the product. Secondly, this boat is quite a niche product. But the fact that she became widely known in narrow circles made me change my mind,” John laughs. 

“You see, X1 will still not be more than three or four pieces. This was the idea. I do not mind and do not exclude the possibility of continuing the series in the form of boats of the X2, X3 lines, etc. Interest in the boat is really phenomenal. But we simply will not export in terms of capacity. Presently! But expect news from us in the near future.”

The yacht, which has seen many adventures in its lifetime, is preparing for a new adventure. This time with new owners.

It will come as a surprise to many that the dream yacht around the world should be something like this. By design, by execution ... But first of all - by size.

Hanstaiger X1

Introducing to you the hanstaiger x1.

The X1 is revolutionary an exceptional trimaran yacht. Its luxurious interiors filled with natural light, a 70m2 lounge that opens to the sea, a stunning full equipped flybridge along with the of set the sails at a touch of a button to be able to enjoy your cruise with no noise, make this boat truly unique.

The interior of the X1 is designed to feel like you are in a luxury home. Natural light fills all areas of the boat, thanks to the glass roof structure and oversized lateral windows. The X1 has one of the largest glass-to-structure ratios in the industry. In order to help regulate internal temperatures and ensure privacy, windows come equipped with smart glass technology allowing adjustment and dimming of sunlight passing through into interior of the boat. Thanks also to its massive 50kw Lithium battery system and the power to run the boat for hours without resorting to the generator, guest can enjoy their time onboard with no noise at all.

There are no narrow corridors or maze-like internal structures; the layout is designed to feel open and easy to move around in. The X1 offers a 76m2 lounge area that can be opened and converts into a beach club with an additional 25m2 of deck and swimming platform extensions. It has a big sofa area and a wonderful dining area with two great and comfortable adjustable electric armchairs that can rotate to enjoy the sea view.

The owner’s cabin, situated at the front of the main hull, with over 30m2, is something never seen in any other yacht. The sea views from the bed are just unique. All the glass roof and windows come equipped with smart glass technology allowing adjustment and dimming of sunlight passing through into the interior. The owner ́s cabin is divided into three levels. The higher level has a 1.7m wide x 2m long bed and an aft office. In the middle level there is a bathroom with dual sinks, a dressing table, a hydromassage cabin and sauna. On the lower level, there is access to a large glass dressing room with a central corridor and LED lighting where the independent WC is also located.

The Port Cabin has a central bed of 1.6m wide x 2m long, oriented towards the side windows while the Starboard cabin has unique first-class duo of reclining beds with roll-up TV and a separate dressing room with private shower. There is an extra cabin with a single bed.

The flybridge, of 50 m2, has lounge chairs, sun beds and chill-out sofas, a great glass jacuzzi tub, a T- barbeque area and a large central table for 10 guests.

Trimaran Hanstaiger X1

Sam Fortescue speaks to the owner of the unique and stunning Hanstaiger X1, almost certainly the world’s most radical cruising trimaran inside and out.

Only three of these unique designs will ever be built

The result is a  trimaran  where some 85% of the interior space is on the same level, resembling a generous urban loft apartment. The cabins and heads in the side hulls, plus the master cabin occupying the forward half of the central hull, all connect without steps to the main saloon.

This was one of the reasons Ordovas chose to build a trimaran, rather than a catamaran. “The problem with catamarans is you go into the side hulls and it ends up being something of a rabbit hole with tight corners,” he explains.

It is a brave design, because all that interior space comes from extending the superstructure to the very stern of the boat. “There were some risky elements to this,” he admits. “We were removing the deck space and the cockpit. But in a way, the opening at the back becomes the exterior of the boat as the hydraulic doors become a beach club. It’s one of the design features I’m most proud of.”

Instead, the helm has been moved to the top of a broad staircase (I hesitate to use a term as traditional as ‘companionway’), where an entirely glass-lined bridge amidships gives all-round visibility.

Cockpit is absolutely the right term here, with its huge high-backed sports seats and natty little automotive steering wheels. “My father and grandfather were fighter pilots, and I’m also a pilot,” explains Ordovas. “I was always trying to inspire the architects to think of a fighter pilot cockpit – that’s why there’s a glass canopy that comes up from the helm station.”

Cockpit wings

The canopy can be opened up via wings at the side if you want extra ventilation, or that whoop-as-you-go feeling. It also lets you clamber out onto the coachroof, where a teak-lined footway bordered with an elegant stainless-steel balustrade guides you safely down to the bows.

It’s an important safety feature, but Ordovas strove to make it a largely unnecessary trip. “The boat’s been designed so there’s not much reason to go to the bow. We have captive winches for the sails, and there’s a push-button system for sheeting in, raising sail etc, so everything is electronics-based. That’s also why the deck of the boat is quite clean – we don’t have many ropes flying about.”

While this is avowedly not a boat for a purist sailor who likes the feedback from helm and sheets – Ordovas himself says as much – performance was still a key part of the brief.

In the first sea trials off Alicante, where the yard is based, heavy conditions saw the boat make an easy 15 knots under main and jib alone. “The sails for me were more from a practical perspective – something environmentally friendly that can get you from A to B in comfort and safety. Sailing in this boat is great fun, it’s pleasurable that you can adjust the sails at the touch of a button.”

The X1 has a lifting centreboard to keep her pointing well, and the lay-up is in a mixture of foam-cored carbon and glass for the hull, with full carbon for the superstructure. It keeps weight to a minimum, but the design is not light at 40 tonnes of displacement.

There is no current allowance for a large downwind sail for tradewind sailing, but there’s nothing in the design of the boat that prevents that from happening, says Ordovas.

He is also tinkering with something he calls a ‘dynamic stabilisation system’: a pair of ailerons fixed between the outer and the central hulls and linked to a gyroscope. Operating like the flaps on a plane’s wing, the system is being designed from scratch to eliminate the already modest roll that the trimaran experiences. “My wife does get a bit  seasick ,” says Ordovas, almost apologetically. “I’m keen to push the boat as much as I can in terms of extreme design.”

In a way, to focus on the sailing characteristics of the X1 is like reviewing the sound system in a Lamborghini. It’s the accommodation on this boat that takes your breath away, as well as the audacious reimagining of living spaces, which is a thousand miles away from the standard saloon-cockpit combo.

With its 70m2 floor space, the saloon is huge, with 3m of headroom to match. The ‘galley’ more closely resembles an open-plan designer kitchen, with an eight-person dining table and sophisticated freestanding Italian furniture. A huge, swivelling LCD screen folds down from the ceiling.

But the star feature is the way the whole transom lowers down in three large panels to create a 27m2 ‘beach club’ lounging area. Teak decked, there are clever sunloungers built into the huge hinged aft doors.

This, together with the gull-wing style opening windows in the topsides, means that the whole saloon is effectively transformed into outdoor space at the touch of a hydraulic control.

“This way, we avoid the replication of spaces that you see on other boats: two sofas, two dining tables and so on,” says Ordovas.

Structurally, the design relies on a massive 120kg carbon fibre beam that runs from quarter to quarter and transfers the loads from the deck above and the flexing outer hulls into the main hull.

Further strength and stiffness is provided throughout the superstructure by a lattice of carbon fibre members.

And though you might lose that traditional cockpit connection to the sea around you, much of it is returned via the flybridge lounging area. There is seating galore up here, a barbecue, fridge and even a glass-walled jacuzzi (yes, really) that you fill from the boat’s 1,200lt freshwater tank, with help from the high-output 260lt/hr watermaker. Hot water comes from an on-demand diesel heater system.

The master cabin is on three half levels, with a double bed at saloon level, then steps down to sofas in the point of the bow. The heads are down a few more steps, tucked under the bed. Also at this level, further aft, is a laundry and nanny’s room. A further two cabins offer a guest double and a twin with reclining beds. “Like a first-class cabin on a plane,” says Ordovas.

Widening the net

All this luxury requires power, of course – a lot of it. There are a token 2-3kW of  solar panels  built into the hull, and the option for a pair of wind turbines, although hull number one won’t have these.

There’s a 50kW lithium-ion battery bank for silent overnighting, and it all requires two 8.6kW gensets alongside the twin 165kW Volvo Pentas to keep it going. I ask Ordovas about using regenerating props, but it’s not something he’s thought about.  Electric propulsion  is another story, however.

“We considered it very carefully. I was initially keen, but the truth is that, at least at the moment, I don’t think the technology is there.”

As is often the case with original yacht designs, the X1 project was borne out of frustration with what the multihull market already offered. “This was five years ago, and the truth was, I didn’t find anything particularly exciting in the mid-sized yachts,” says Ordovas.

The design allows for a sauna and hydromassage cabin, but Ordovas has diverted this space into wardrobes for stowage. Photo: hanstaiger.com

So instead of hunting round for the best compromise, Ordovas, who has set up international schools all over the world, decided to run a design competition to provoke some new thinking. “The underlying point for me was, if we’re going to do this, let’s do something different, exciting and fun. I didn’t want to do something that looked like all the other yachts, otherwise I might as well just buy one!”

There was a surprising response to his advertisement on  freelancer.com , and he was able to browse for the most interesting designs. Work from Spanish naval architects Antonio Claro and Nerea Perez caught his eye. “I spent two years working with them as a kind of hobby, initially, to see if we could develop a design and then if I was brave enough to go ahead and build it.”

Radical difference

By then it was 2017, and Ordovas commissioned Spanish yard Flash Catamaran to build it. In what lesser souls might have seen as a warning from the gods, Flash went bust a few months into the project. After long consideration he decided there was little point in taking the risk with a third party. “So, we set up our own shipyard and started hiring people,” he says.

“Then the idea of building a brand came up. I’m convinced that the design we have is very special in terms of the looks of the boat.”

Now the first boat – his boat – is in sea trials, Ordovas is already turning his thoughts to the future. He has sworn to destroy the moulds after just two more X1s have been built. “For me, the value of [this] boat cries out for it to be exclusive,” Ordovas explains. “If you saw too many of these, it would devalue the product.”

He is already mulling an X2 and an X3, and says there has been phenomenal interest in the boat. So much so, that he has appointed superyacht sales agents Northrop & Johnson to lift the weight of dealing with potential customers off his shoulders. “We’ve already had a request for a larger boat,” says Ordovas. “The reality is we’re still a small, boutique shipyard and our production is limited.”

That may be so, but he is undoubtedly ambitious. With only three X1s due to be built you may never clap eyes on one – but if you do you won’t mistake it for anything else afloat.
