Pacific Yachting - Canada
Tested: Axopar 28 AC (Pacific Yachting 06/2016)
“The performance and fuel economy are both outstanding. Fit and finish are also first-rate. Its striking design is another feature that will draw in customers.”
What they loved about the Axopar 28 AC: "At a more sedate cruising speed of 27 knots (4,000 rpm), the fuel consumption was a remarkable 1.6 litres (0.42US gallons) per mile. For its size, the Axopar 28 can boast some of the lowest fuel consumption numbers we’ve ever seen.", "Despite the two-foot chop, there was absolutely no pounding and the movement of the boat was soft. Another pleasant surprise was that, despite the chop, we never took a drop of water over the bow. This is an outstanding characteristic. Driving the Axopar was a real pleasure.", "As with the exterior, we could not find any fault with the high quality construction and craftsmanship throughout the interior. Axopar certainly isn’t cutting any corners when it comes to quality of construction.", "From bow to stern this new offering is a refreshing departure from the norm."

Fast but safe. Open but sheltered. Spacious but cruise-friendly. Is there anything the Axopar 45 Cross Top can’t do?
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.
