Axopar Announces U.S. Debut of Axopar 38 XC Cross Cabin at Palm Beach International Boat Show

Axopar pioneers once again to set new standards, with the Axopar 38 range marking a new era in adventure boating. The Axopar 38 XC Cross Cabin makes its U.S. premiere at the Palm Beach International Boat Show, introducing the first model in the all-new Axopar 38 range. Additional models — the Axopar 38 Sun Top and Cross Top — will follow later this year.

With an uncompromising drive to innovate, Axopar's all-new 38 range redefines onboard livability and comfort while delivering an unrivaled driving experience on one of the best-handling hulls in the world. The Axopar 38 is the most ambitious and impactful range in Axopar’s history, built to make boating easier, safer, and more enjoyable for seasoned boaters and beginners alike.

Honoring the legacy of the iconic Axopar 37

The legacy and DNA of the iconic Axopar 37 — a range that has become an industry icon and has shaped boating culture around the world — is clearly present in the all-new Axopar 38 range. Nearly 3,000 units of the 37 range have been sold globally, with owners ranging from first-time boaters to experienced captains, offshore adventurers, commercial operators, and governments, making it one of the most trusted and proven boats across both recreational and professional use.

At the same time, it reflects the broader Axopar philosophy that created a category of its own — adventure boating — building boats designed for real use, real conditions, and the freedom to explore further.

Shaped by experience — built with purpose

Axopar believes that a boat must adapt to different uses with minimal compromise, as boating today is broader, more social, and more versatile than ever. People spend longer days on the water and use their boat for a wider range of activities. The all-new Axopar 38 is created to meet that need. It is the result of the most extensive investments in R&D than any previous Axopar range, continuing the company’s philosophy of functional, flexible, and timeless Nordic design that enables real experiences without unnecessary complexity.

The all-new range builds on the values that have defined Axopar from the beginning, while elevating comfort, usability, and adaptability across every area of the boat. Every detail onboard serves a purpose, and every space is designed to support how people move and live onboard.

Customers can optimize every area more closely to their own preferences, while competitors offer only standard compromises. With comprehensive layout options, this flexibility allows more freedom and fewer compromises, leading to a level of adaptability never before available.
