The Axopar 38 XC is a modular, all-weather companion, reimagining the walkaround concept for cruising and will make it's debut at Dusseldorf
One of Boot Düsseldorf’s best attended launches will be that of the Axopar 38 XC – the first of the new 38 series models and what Axopar is calling its “most ambitious” product line yet.
Designed as a year-round, all-weather companion, it will apparently introduce a fresh walkaround concept, “reimagined cabins” and a greater degree of modularity. The idea behind that is to enable you to adapt it to your day out – whether that involves family cruising, overnight stays, fishing, watersports or long passages.
You do of course get the trademark gullwing doors, fold-down bulwarks and aft cabin option, plus a pilothouse that opens up on both sides and a bow and cockpit that come with a whole range of layout alternatives.
You also get an upgraded bow cabin with increased headroom, a redesigned heads and a practical kitchenette option. And while the new boat uses the same twin-stepped hull form we’ve seen before, that too has apparently been fine-tuned.
This 38 XC will be followed by the Sun Top, Cross Top and CCX models later in 2026 and 2027. But for now, rest assured, the much-loved and multi-award-winning Axopar 37 will continue to be available for the next year or two.
