What you will see in the video below is more than a preview. That’s right, because we’re talking about the all-new Axopar 38, unveiled to a select group of journalists at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2025, and considered to be one of the top boats coming in 2026. Its real debut will take place only in a few months, at the Boot Düsseldorf 2026.
We were able to see it up close: these are the main new features.
As was the case with the Axopar 29, heir to the first 28, the 38 will be an evolution of the yard’s best-selling Axopar 37. The two ranges will coexist, at least initially, with the 38 bringing with it an implemented hull to improve planing entry, a new step design and, above all, an increased on-board livability entirely devoted to the comfort of on-board guests. There will be more interior heights, increased habitability of the cabins, but also of the deck. For the first time, folding bulwarks, now a must-have for this kind of boat, will be introduced on an Axopar.
The substance, however, will be what the yard has accustomed us to over the years: no electro-hydraulic handling or weighting of any kind. A simple and practical system in line with the “less is more” principle that should make the enjoyment, but also the management of the boat as simple as possible. The first examples will be officially presented to the general public at Boot Düsseldorf in January 2026.
