Yachts International – US
Tested: Axopar 37 SC – (Yachts International April 2018)
“Handsome, smart, agile”, “A turn on the Axopar 37 SC proves this Finnish-built center console has performance to spare”
What they loved about the Axopar 37 SC: “The cockpit seems Florida-ready with plenty of space for entertaining—especially if you opt for the wet bar, fridge, grill and sink”, “I found the throttle exceptionally responsive”, “I quickly discovered that the 37 is indeed a performance boat. But I’m not just referring to the 45-knot top end. A lot of boats can go 45 knots with 700 horsepower on the back. I’m talking about its ability to make sharp turns with confidence (no hull slipping here), the ability to track like an arrow and do it all with modest fuel burn”, “The enclosed main deck is a versatile entertaining space”, “I worked the wheel and chased down multiple boat wakes but couldn’t conjure a speck of spray. Indeed, the boat’s ability to cut corners and turns is only inhibited by the bravery of the driver”, “With the 37, the Finnish builder has blended an aggressive look with an inviting cabin while staying true to the company’s philosophy of efficiency and performance”.

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.
