Motorboat & Yachting (United Kingdom) Axopar 45 Cross Top
Reviewed: Axopar 45 XC Cross Top – (Motorboat & Yachting, June 2024)
"Fast but safe. Open but sheltered. Spacious but cruise-friendly. Is there anything the Axopar 45 Cross Top can’t do?"
”The ergonomics are also as close to perfect as you could want, and your access to the bow, to the stern, to cleats and to tying-off points makes solo helming a breeze.”
”The intelligence of the features on this boat is also very tough to ignore.”
"But in spite of all this impeccable day boating practicality, it’s good to see that the cruisers among us are not forgotten, and given Axopar’s starring role in the creation of the Adventure Boat as a formally recognised category, that’s very important.”
Other reviews & tests
This was one of the most fun and capable center consoles I’ve ever driven. Axopar should have a hit—in a new niche—on its hands.
In terms of driveability, the 29 is unquestionably elite, and its performance comes from an energy-efficient approach compared to its competitors.
The 29 XC has a relatively spacious cabin for its size. Three adults can fit comfortably on the aft bench and there is a passenger and driver's seat.
