We Pushed the ALL-NEW Axopar 38 Cross Top to the Limit in Cannes!

Axopar claims the new 38 was engineered for stability, control, and "performance without intimidation". We put that claim to the test. Straight from the world premiere at the Cannes Yachting Festival, BoatTEST co-founder Jeff Hammond joins Captain Boomies and Axopar co-founding partner Jan-Erik Viitala aboard the Axopar 38 Cross Top. We run her through the notorious chop of Cannes Bay to test high-speed handling, fuel burn, wake crossing, and flat-out top speed. *We hope to conduct a full BoatTEST later this year, as our limited time aboard did not allow for a complete inspection and performance evaluation during the Cannes Yacht Show* To learn more visit BoatTEST https://boattest.com/boats/axopar/38-cross-top-2026 See all our Axopar Test & Reviews here: https://boattest.com/boats/axopar Visit Axopar Boats: https://www.axopar.com/ CHAPTERS 00:00 Intro 01:00 Jeff Hammond & Captain Boomies Step Aboard 01:36 Acceleration & Planing Speed 02:32 Fuel Economy & Cruise Sweet Spot 02:45 Captain Boomies Top-Speed Run 03:15 Lock-to-Lock Turns & Wake Crossing 04:04 Jan-Erik Viitala Takes the Helm 04:21 Hull Dynamics & Evolution 05:08 Cannes Bay Chop Performance 06:16 Final Sea Trial Verdict 📱 Follow Us on Social Media: 👉https://www.instagram.com/boattest_official 👉 https://www.facebook.com/boattestcom/ 👉https://twitter.com/boattest 👉 https://www.linkedin.com/company/boattest/ 💼 Website: https://boattest.com/ ✨ Join Our Community: 📝 BoatTEST Daily Newsletter: https://boattest.com/user/register Photo Content "Life is Better On A Boat" Daily Newsletter Subscriber Submission.
