Axopar 28 Customer Review – Ian and Julianne

We are pleased to announce yet another successful handover to a very happy Melbourne customer!

Ian and Julianne just received their new Axopar 28 Aft Cabin and have done nothing but praise the decision since…

The couple named the new yacht “Samiira” (Finnish spelling of an Arabic name meaning of good company and well loved).

The couple have now upgraded from there previous boat to an Axopar which in their words has “EXCEEDED EXPECTATIONS” in more ways than one!

In terms of the vessel “Everything is perfect,” said Ian.

DRIVE

The pair have taken the Axopar out multiple times in Melbourne’s rough conditions.

Ian stated “we remain very impressed with the stability and smoothness of the boat’s handling. Including tight turns in very choppy conditions. Our docking instructor, who is very experienced, accompanied us and expressed admiration and surprise at the boat’s really excellent sea handling qualities – so it is not just Julianne and me who are impressed.”

After Julianne’s first trip as skipper she found the boat very easy to operate and dock.

Julianne stated, “the boat handles superbly in both light and heavy sea and wind conditions and is something of a magic carpet in terms of its stability and speed. The all round visibility is sensational from within the very comfortable cabin” (which Julianne likens to being in a Range Rover SUV!)

DESIGN

The pair expectations were also exceeded by the overall design.

“What a fantastic hull shape and layout. The high quality of finish and the attention to detail with the fittings and options we ordered. The boat has already attracted a great deal of interest from several experienced boaters in our local marina, and we have shown them around the boat, and they too have all remarked equally favourably on all of these issues (so again it is not just us). We are sure that the design is the shape of things to come.”

OVERALL THOUGHTS

“This boat is a winner for a (ok retired!) couple like us who want to have confidence in the manufacturer and dealer – and to use the boat for mostly fast daytime passages around our local coast and waterways, and with the occasional overnight stay in places like Melbourne Docklands…

So, the boat is a delight and we are taking great pleasure in our ownership of this new model.”

EYACHTS SERVICE

Ian was extremely impressed by the Eyachts team and how helpful everyone was.

“Well done Axopar and the eYachts team!”

Axopar 37 Cabin Review: The First Axopar Owner in Western Australia Shares His Story

Axopar 37 Cabin Review: The First Axopar Owner in Western Australia Shares His Story

Jeremy was the first Axopar 37 Cabin owner in Western Australia, taking a leap of faith on a boat that wasn’t available locally at the time. Since then, his Axopar has become central to both his family life and business, from taking his kids on their first boating adventures to sharing the lifestyle with his staff.
“I took a bit of a risk buying this boat, there weren’t any in Perth. I bought it based on online reviews, then flew to Queensland to test drive one and it totally exceeded my expectations. I was blown away by how well it handled. I’ve had a few boats before, but their handling was unpredictable. With the Axopar, you know exactly what it’s going to do, which gives you confidence, my wife feels far more confident on this boat than any we’ve had before. It’s super soft riding, super dry, and a fantastic day boat. My boys all learned to drive on it. We take it offshore to Dunsborough once a year and cruise at 30 knots with no issue. And I even take my staff out on it, it’s something they’d never normally get to experience. This boat has given us lifestyle, adventure, and community, it’s just brilliant.”

Why She Kept the Boat After Loss– A Female Skipper’s Axopar 37 Sun Top Review – Jasmyn

After losing her husband, Jasmyn Wright took the helm of their Axopar 37 Sun Top, a boat he had carefully chosen for the family. Now a solo female skipper, Jasmyn continues to use the boat with her adult children for weekend getaways, water sports, and time together on the WA coast.
“I drive it, I berth it, I feel really safe, even in the unpredictable WA wind. It’s comfortable, it handles well, and it gives me the confidence to get out there on my own. We ski, we snorkel, we stay overnight, we even take it to Mandurah for the holidays. It really does everything. That’s why I say it’s the perfect boat for WA life. Honestly, I wouldn’t give this up for anything.”
“We’ve had boats before that got tossed and turned everywhere, but with the Axopar’s hull design, it just cuts through the water. You feel so much more stable and in control,” added son Kyle.

Heather and Graeme’s Axopar is more than just a boat, it’s their go-to for surfing, crayfishing, fishing, and tendering. After years on the water in WA, they say this compact adventure boat does everything they need.
“It’s such a versatile boat, we use it for crayfishing, fishing, surfing, and even as a tender to our bigger boat. There are bunks and a toilet for the kids, it’s safe and comfortable in swell, and it does 45 knots. We just love it.”
