€1/2 Million Yacht Tour and Sea Trial : Axopar 45 

This is a real rich man's toy. I can imagine a few of these being sold as giga yacht support boats! thanks for the tour Nick. Looking forward to more from Palma.

Absolute masterpiece. Love the boat and as always great tour Nick 😃😃

Axopar just keeps upping their game. What a great boat

Great sports boat. And so liveable too. Lovely tour. And nice to see Marianne on the wheel too.

niiiiice! one of the first reviews i noticed now! thanks

Also love the look of those mercs

Cool new episode!! Watching now!! 👀👀

There are things about this boat that I just love ....... and things that make me just scratch my head and think what! The inside wet bar/kitchen for instance, the first time you cook a 'frie-up', that'll be the upholstery due a clean 😯

My man was flying there,that would definitely be a good fishing boat. Nice video 👍👍

Legend been dying to see this boat!

An amazing boat! Dear Father Christmas...

Warms the heart to see my flag standing proudly in the wind. And that boat is also something else, even an old traditionalist like myself can grasp the practicality of a boat like that. Finnish boats earlier tended to be very enclosed as the weather is what it is but in later years different kinds of more open boats have more and more become popular, the first ones that found their ways also abroad were propably the Buster range (alloy boats by Fiskars) and of course Targa which are not open but they have a lot of open outside space also. Axopar embraces some of the same ideas with a very modern twist. And they really look like no other boat, many find those looks appealing and so do I. They look fast and for this type of boat that is not a bad thing.

As they say here in the West country "Proper Job". Great video Nick. A cool boat.

nice speedy fun boat

This is certainly a fun boat where you don't care about comfort or luxury, but instead care about getting out and getting muddy/wet/sandy. Overall, I like the concept, but would rather see it with IPS drives and some expanded tankage for longer duration excursions. That said, this would make a fun Great Loop boat!

That, is a cool boat.

Axopar is perfect for hot humid South Asian river, canal and shore expeditions. Upgrading AC is must. We are taking 2 of the 37 cabins from Can tho, Vietnam to Siem Reap, Cambodia. 1500 km. Navigating shipping lines on Sea, Mekong, lake and narrow canals. The weeds get entangled on props but being in Asia has its advantages - just pay locals for clean Ups etc.

why is there a grill inside?

The open rear deck towards the engines might be very dangerous with children on board while underway?

Is it a half a million euro boat or a one to two million euro boat

Looks like a great boat only if it was in Australia haha

Just when you think you have seen it all, along comes this, what a boat, it’s like a Swiss Army knife that floats. Brilliant!

I notice a lack of decoration on the table... It's almost like they knew You were coming over, Nick...

1st view

Really good looking platform, but I'm not a fan of how this one was outfitted. Seemed quite crowded in the saloon area - feels like the large table should have been installed cross-beam rather than lengthwise. Wish there was better finishing in the rear cockpit. Why is the grill inside? That seems like a weird choice. Love seeing the variety though, Nick!

Woo and indeed, Hoo! That looks like serious fun although, presumably, those outboards have a thirst to match 😱. Nice boat 😎

Very clever and innovative solutions! Great looking boat, too! But wtf is wrong with the people who decided to put the grill in the middle of the boat? I can guarantee you, everything around it will be smelly and dirty the first time you use it. I mean, have these guys ever grilled a fish or sausages in their life?

Axopar 45 - the Chameleon of boating. Able to change its configurations to match its surroundings in order to provide top comfort and maximum FUN. The variation of "layouts" and access points are nearly INFINITE. Sliding the entire side of a cabin's external wall to expose the interior - just for the fun of it - OMG. All the while I'm watching, I'm singing to myself the Talking Heads "... take me to the river". And BONUS - a visit from Marianne. Thanks Nick and friends for this lovely Tuesday Treat - afloat for the fun of it.

Can you do an Aquaholic review on the Cranchi A46 Luxury Tender please?

I love the Axopar boats for their hull design as it handles the rough seas well and is good for speed and turns .. however they are failing miserably when it comes to the interiors .. this big 45 version is a testament to what I am saying , it has no space in the cabin and they can never seem to get the toilet right .. even the galley layout is poor so not a good weekender .. for £500,000 there are many other boats that offer and do a lot more then this boat .. Axopar is struggling with the interiors and I think it has something to do with the hull design .. great boat for the day but not at this price point .. just my opinion as a boat owner for the last 14 years ..

Oh I do like this one, it looks incredibly versatile and the way it handles out on the water is effortless and elegant! Brilliant tour and sea trial thanks Nick!

Really like what they've done with this. Classic axopar with some amazing upgrades. Can't wait to see what it's like when brabus get hold of it 😍 Amazing video as always Nick!

Gooood sell those 37s! Ready to buy a used 37x cabin!!

Lovely boat well laid out with everything you need. seriously fast but still comfortable you did not seem to be bouncing about at all. great video as always, thank's Nick.

Wow! WHAT. A. BOAT! I live adjacent to the North Sea so this is the sort of "all-weather" boat that I could easily take out as an 'all-season' coastal explorer. She is a stunner! I would love to see how she handles in big sea-states (maybe 4-6)

I have always thought up until now that Axopar produce great adventure vessels, had an advantage making great fun boats and ones that make superb chase boats. But they have missed the mark with this one, yes it is eight feet longer but what advantage is that over the 37, not a lot as far as I can see. A sliding wet bar if you need a dining area of a sensible size, crazy idea and when slid to against the pilot seats makes it unusable. I hope the cabin ceiling is padded, if have a nightmare during the night you will bang your head on it. I hate to think how cramped the aft cabin might be. As for the toilet, a joke They need to get a decent space and interior designer on board and ditch all the gimmicks. This boat is close on fifty feet long and whilst I understand that Axopar are not competing with the likes of Sunseeker, Princess, Pearl and other similar manufacturers they should look closely as to how they manage space and interiors. Even though they think that by opening the wide doors, and they are overlapping, and roof makes it airy it doesn't, it all looks so clumsy, contrived and claustrophobic.

I have been eagerly waiting for this kind of review on the 45 and I must say I' disappointed. I need to sleep five in three berths and this is not closer to that than the 37. It seems fairly odd that a vessel requiring at least a 50' slip can't even sleep four people without giving up basically your entire cockpit. If your "adventure" happens to be fishing, crabbing or shrimping, I guess your SOL with Axopar. Bummer. Great video as ever!

Yet another of Nick's reviews that warrants a full discussion on these contemporary outboard engines which boat builders seem increasingly likely to use. Reliability, fuel consumption, servicing requirements, warrantee, repair history and longevity, just to name some of the topics.

Interesting boat this one I like that you get so many options to make it right for you. Great tour as always Nick

Interesting concept but it seems hugely overpriced for a limited functionality "lifestyle" boat. Great tour as always Nick but, to me at least, it's a triumph of marketing over practicality.

So fine to see the smiling Miss M.. I just love people who exude happiness.. you must be doing something right Nick.. it really shows.. HI Miss M from the pacific northwest!! I was thinking this was an ok boat.. But then you got out there and played for a bit.. now I am sold! good job guys!

Another head scratcher is the anchor deployment...you have to unlock both anchor lockers before deploying the anchor...an unnecessary step in my opinion. I like my anchor unobstructed and ready to deploy from the cockpit, if necessary. Agree on the indoor location of the cooking surface...just seems they are doing too much in a tight space. One more observation is the front berth/living area...such a large area to have a wet bath...this needs to have a separate head/shower for a 45'. Otherwise, great boat!

torille

I cant think of a more useless piece of machinery. Good at nothing, except speed, so why all the fuss with double doors and flipping cushions and all this magnanimous bull? Just make it simple (and cheaper) and just put seats all over for people to sit from point A to B. As for the open cabin and gull-wing doors and all this crap, its just a ...greenhouse with doors. 45 feet? Really?

Was just watching a video from a popular RU-vid channel where the guy has a "dedicated" center console fishing boat. He takes his wife on excursions, but, at 49', the thing doesn't even have a head. This Axopar would be the way to go if girls are also your thing... .

I prefer the "traditionelle style" boats like the 2 aquastar or the Brooms - for example you showed us, Nick . We (my wife Yngrid and me have an 1983 Chris Craft 33 Sedan Fly wich is berthed in Croatia (we are from Salzburg in Austria; 4 1/2 hours with the car to go) and Our favourite is the Aquastar 48. A lot of greetings to you, Nick and thank you so much for the very very good videos !!! -:)

That's quite a different boat. I really like this one. I'd have the upper cabin. But it does need a galley for me. Hello Marianne. Thank you Nick.

Love the video, and what a great boat. 600 liter fuel consumption on top speed With 900 HP ?.

Great boats, i have the xc 37, i wish they would make a southern edition, less glass in the top. and maybe no opening top and add solar panels, we need AC In Florida, and Australia. and get rid of those gull wing doors, and go back to a forward opening hatch.

Perhaps Nick was allowed 30 minutes but it took him 23 minutes to wrestle it off Marianne?

Personal thing, but I'd want more accommodation on a 45' boat. But then I have kids!

As I wrote some weeks ago, we have an old Chris Craft 33' in Croatia and because of this circumstance we are members of the "seahelp" organisation (they make technical assistance on the sea) In Croatia they opened a new base; equipped with a very strong and fast Axopar!! A lot of greetings to the UK

Smugglers 111 As luxurious as SL Nick and proper fast 💨

The Brabus edition with triple 450s or a pair of 600s on will be quite something

They need to hurry up and start officially offering the Cox diesel outboards as options on these things.

Great video not my cup of tea think the mountain bike put me off , Mrs was impressed she said she's never seen you so excited which was a bit worrying 🤣

all those 45ft+ 2 million+ plus center consoles should learn something from Axopar on how to do the sliding doors.

Why can’t they fit a proper separate stand up shower in it??…(not a wet head)…. Seems to me at 45 ft they should be able to fit at least one……

I’ll wait for the new Saxdor 40, with the large fold down sides, thanks.

Hi Nick and Marianne. I'm so glad you're both there. Marianne should help you tour super/megayachts too. This has a good layout and options. Properly fast and practical. Great tour thanks 😊

The only thing this boat doesnt have is a fluxcapacator, and that is for the best if you ask me🤣

03:26 chat to someone?? Oh Nick you really don't know us Finns at all LoL

Brilliant as always Captain....nice to see your first mate on the job too!!! Lovin' that 45....possibly my new fave! Keep doing what you do Sir !!!

That's a cracker.! Great review as per. So, without the rear cabin option, is it strictly a 2 berth, or can the lounge be configured for sleeping too.?

Interesting, but that grill would be just impossible to use irl. 😅

I generally like the idea of the boat. But if I had to re-design it, I’d do as following: - Place the kitchen thing at the back and outside, with a prolonged roof overhang above it. - Move the seating area a bit towards the Helm and have the table with telescopic leg, for transforming it into a guest sleeping area - have a seating area for 4 to 6 at the very back and a high stern board, to eat at the outsides. Also with telescopic table, to have it transform into another sun bed. - prolong the beach area aft the stern board, so you could jump down/ climb up from the sides of it. Big enough to carry a jetskie - add wooden yacht flooring, because it’s nice. :)

if they made this without the front room it would be the perfect fishing boat

How about storage for food? No small fridge either?

Hello. Have a safe blessed day! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Is this more expensive than the Brabus cx900

That'll do nicely 👍🇬🇧❤️

Holy cow. This Axopar totally hauls ass, as they say in China.

What was the fuel consumption on cruise and wot??

Teak decks would be nice - too much white grp

Any idea about when the Sargo 45 will be available?

After watching you review so many multi million dollar boats, my first reaction to this one was, "What a steal!" then I have to remind myself that it cost more than my current home. lol As always thanks for the great tour.

Just watched your 37 vid and just finished watching this one and another superb speed monster ,thanks again Nick your vids also hit home when you show off a new boat/yacht .

Nice looking boat. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🛥🛥🛥🛥🛥🛥

Great fun but not sure what options id have LOL

Just what I want is a grill that will scorch the back of my head

Why fit 3 outboards to much maintenance 🙄

Did anyone else actually wave at Marianne, or am I the only one?

Oooooh! She’s a bit different. ♥️♥️♥️

Thanks so much Nick!( and Marianne) I've been looking forward to the Axopar 45. Such an amazing, practical vessel. Personally, I'd prefer the aft cabin.

What an I triguing Boat ! Love it Nick. 😀 Lots of parts of the World that will be really popular, and great fun to own. Great to see Marianne with you too, and I'm sure you both had, or are having, a wonderful time. 👍🙂

Great video Nick. Hope you are enjoying the weather! Defo on the wish list! LOL

The engines don’t say 300 they say “MOO”

What are those outboards now, about £20k a pop.

I think you should have introduced the crew

Super nifty! The watch I mean. Oh, the boat as well ;-) Fabulous video as always.

Only one word required….. AWESOME 🤩

Was ist das denn??? Ein Boot mit Dachgepäckträger???

You got my hopes up when i started watching it. I'm waiting for that day they make a boat that's actually designed for a bunch of guys, with the understanding of their mindset. What they need is to make something like this, but with 4 even sized micro single cabins. (maybe 2 in the front, 2 in the back) Something that 4 guys can go out out in, and have a nice private bed. I love the outboard motors and the nice sitting area around a table to play cards. the kitchen could use a bit more for longer term stuff. Maybe will solar option on the roof so your generator doesn't have to start up so much when you lounging for a few days on end.

Nick check out this yacht the silverton 39ft. I just saw it and im on love with it. I think its awesome. What's your thoughts. I want to own it. Its has so much character. I would like to know what your think. Than k you.

Just amazing Nick Sir 😍.. Just love your brilliant... Looking great as always 😉

Waiting for the Brabus version 😈

28 is sweet spot - bang for buck

Awesome boat. Really like this one.

Love seeing your watches!

And at 7:50 you can see Nick’s Brabus Rocket waiting for him!
