Some say it’s cool. Others call it ugly. We say it’s unapologetically different — and that’s precisely the point.

The ULSTEIN X-BOW® turns traditional ship design on its head. Literally. By flipping the conventional bow shape, we've created a safer, sleeker, and stronger way to sail. This isn't only about looks. It's about leading the future of maritime design.

And guess what? It works.

Fuel savings that matter

The X-BOW keeps ships moving fast and smooth, even when the waves get rough. That means more reliable itineraries, less downtime, and improved crew and passenger comfort. It even boosts transport capacity by up to 3% and annual revenue potential by 5%.

Comfort that’s felt

In an industry chasing sustainability and smarter performance, we chose progress over tradition. The X-BOW is a design born from purpose — not convention - and that’s what makes it beautiful.

So, call it what you want. But the numbers don’t lie.

The ULSTEIN X-BOW® isn’t just a look — it’s a leap forward.
