Hello Boater

Axopar 22 T-Top

Entrée to Nordic-Style Boating

PERFORMANCE VIDEO. The Axopar 22 T-Top is an entry-level Nordic-style day boat that is remarkably fun to operate. The double-stepped hull with sharp deadrise and narrow forward entry makes her fast, fuel-efficient and nimble. She topped 45 mph in our tests with a single 200. We think she's good value for money.

She’s ready for whatever the intrepid owner chooses to throw at her, including open sea crossings up to 7,000 NM per the builder. She sleeps up to 14.
