X-Yachts X-332 Buyer's Guide
The X-332 is a Niels Jeppesen-designed 33-foot 10-inch performance cruiser-racer built by X-Yachts from 1994 through 2005, with 432 hulls produced. On the brokerage market she appears as a two-cabin offshore one-design whose race pedigree and teak interior attract both club racers and coastal cruisers. Knowing what was standard, what was commonly upgraded, and where the design shows weakness will sharpen any survey.
Layouts on the Used Market
Every X-332 carries separate forward and aft cabins, a layout testers called the biggest interior surprise in a boat this size, with six-foot stand-up headroom forward thanks to a high cabin house that reaches toward the bow. The saloon holds double settees and a folding table seating six around a three-burner stove with oven, while the nav station is unusually large, occupying as much space as the whole galley. The aft double is roomy but awkward to reach, and the head includes a small wet locker. Buyers should note the galley itself is compromised: a small icebox, barely adequate twin sinks, and little prep counter. The cockpit is long, split by a mainsheet traveler, and seats five or six adults; a tiller was standard with a wheel option set well aft.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
Most boats on the market carry an autopilot, chartplotter, and heating, with bimini and cockpit shower common for comfort. Downwind capability is usually present via gennaker or asymmetric spinnaker, and a conventional spinnaker is also commonly fitted. The original Prestige Package is the specification to look for: it brought Anderson 40ST winches, North sails, Raytheon electronics, and a Fancor roller furler. For a buyer, that package means race-ready deck gear and proven sail inventory without aftermarket guesswork; the commonly fitted canvas and navigation items simply make her usable for short-handed or cooler-climate cruising.
What to Inspect
The high-aspect rudder stalled in average conditions during Sailing World's test despite helping the boat sail to weather. Inspect the rudder stock and bearing for signs of load-related wear or previous stall damage. The steel keel frame has been a builder standard for two decades and includes a central lifting eye, so confirm the frame shows no corrosion at the galvanizing and that the keel fillets remain sound. Otherwise the solid fiberglass hull and lead-iron ballast need only routine osmotic and impact survey.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
X-332s are typically found in the Netherlands, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, and the United Kingdom. For a shopper, the checklist is brief: confirm two-cabin layout and teak condition, verify galley limits are acceptable, seek Prestige Package winches and electronics, and survey the rudder and steel frame closely. A sound example delivers Jeppesen race manners with private-cabin cruising at a sane scale.
