The raised foredeck serves as a platform for sport fishing, or can be covered with a comfortable sunbed. The carlike windshield goes from the deck level towards the glass roof, giving both UV-light protection and fantastic panoramic views. Seating is set for 8 passengers in three rows, with all the seats facing forward.

The XO DFNDR A8 also has space for overnight stay: the head and a berth for two under the foredeck. A RIB-boat style bumper is set around the boat for ultimate protection and comfort. Combining modern, Scandinavian minimalism with Italian-inspired design and the best aluminium alloys out there, the XO DFNDR A8 is a completely unique boat with no match from anywhere else.
