Exlusive to Axopar  

Triple Award Winner

 

Accomplished only once before.

The Axopar 22 range has accomplished a rare hat-trick in the boating industry by consecutively winning all the three renowned European independent boating awards, finalizing its hat-trick winning the 2022 Motor Boat Awards.

The first time a boat manufacturer accomplished the hat-trick of these independent triple award victories for the same model consecutively happened in 2016. That time it was for the equally ground-breaking Axopar 28 range, not long after it first launched.

Jan-Erik Viitala, founding partner of Axopar Boats, says:  
“My sincere appreciation goes to all the passionate boating journalists working hard to evaluate all boats out there that with their extensive experience and knowledge, constantly challenging a manufacturer such as us to create better boats, in order to bring more people on the water, in more comfort, with more functionality and safety.”

The 22 range accomplished what only the 28 range have accomplished before.

"Axopar has always been known for creating exciting and innovative boats combined with solid, competitive pricing. In the case of the new adventurous 22, we used all of our knowledge from the development of our larger models to create one of the coolest, best-handling, and safest 22-footers out there, and are overjoyed that members of the juries have appreciated these features in our Axopar 22.”

The Best of Boats Award is the biggest award for motorboats in Europe, assuming the number of participating countries, jury members and media.

Best of Boats International 2021 – ‘Best for Beginners’  

On these awards, held in Berlin 11.11, prizes were presented to the best international motorboat innovations in six different categories. A jury of 16 international maritime journalists from different boat magazines have thoroughly examined and tested boats with a focus on the boater's perspective. Despite the challenging conditions due to the pandemic, the BOB jury tested over 250 tested boats during 2021.

Axopar's modern design, excellent driving characteristics and many layout options as well as the pre-equipped Axopar x Jobe model were some of the characteristics the jury highlighted when they presented Axopar 22 Spyder as the winner in the category 'Best for Beginners'.

 

 

"A beginners boat is a vessel that is easy to use, safe to travel with, made by a service-driven shipyard, plus economically favourable regarding purchase price, fuel consumption, and costs for maintenance."

European Powerboat of the Year 2022 – ‘Up to 8m’  

This highly acknowledged powerboat award has long been recognised as one of the most respected and influential of their kind. Traditionally, the awards are presented live at the Düsseldorf Boat Show, but for the second year in a row, the ceremony has been held virtually.

Important aspects for the jury when selecting the winner in this category are safety, ease of handling and of course sailing fun along with a good price to performance ratio. Another important aspect for the jury members is the simple and easy transport on the road. The Axopar 22 T-Top clearly met the expectations to satisfy the jury, who were looking for innovation and features worthy of such an important category winner.

The "Oscars of watersports“ is awarded to the best five boats sold in Europe, in five different size categories. The contestants of the 'up to 8 meters' category, where the Axopar 22 T-Top was nominated, are considered entry-level boats.

"The deciding factors of the jury's decision was the Axopar 22 T-Top's concept, which is aimed at a young target group, or those who are young at heart as well as its good handling characteristics. It sets new standards in both areas and also won us over with its reasonable price-performance ratio."

"The 22 does more than mirror its larger siblings, however, and stands out within a spectacularly successful range as a boat in its own right. To make a sub-25ft boat look and feel so grown up takes real skill and an eye on components and materials that appreciates where the money should and shouldn’t be spent."
