Set from the harbor at Palamós, the Invictus CX240 offers a concise, elegant way to experience the Costa Brava: an 8‑metre dayboat built for comfort and speed, with a spacious central cockpit, an L‑shaped sofa, a welcoming cabin and a bow solarium trimmed in leather and chrome. The 2021 hull and a 250 HP outboard deliver the performance to match the boat's refined appointments, making the craft suitable for groups up to ten who want relaxed sun, quick hops between coves and the reassurance of modern build and power.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE BOAT

Compact luxury on an 8‑metre hull

The CX240 concentrates comfortable, high‑end finishes into an efficiently designed 8‑metre platform: a central helm with a flip backrest that converts into a stern‑facing bench, an L‑shaped sofa and a cozy cabin — all finished in white with leather and chrome accents.

THE POWER

Performance you can feel

A 250‑horsepower outboard gives the CX240 notable performance for its size, pairing spirited runs along the coast with a hull designed to stay fibrous yet safe.

THE CAPACITY

Room for a party of ten

Though compact at 8 metres, the layout and deck volume accommodate up to ten guests, making the boat a practical choice for small groups seeking both comfort and sociability on the water.

What the day feels like

What the day feels like

The outing is a measured balance of performance and leisure: board in Palamós, settle into the CX240's cockpit or forward solarium and let the 250 HP outboard move you along the Costa Brava. The boat's layout shifts easily between piloting and social time — the flip‑back helm seat, L‑shaped sofa and sheltered cabin create compact zones for steering, lounging and retreat, so a typical day alternates calm anchorage and coastal runs within a 4–8 hour window.
