£290,000 Sea Trial : Axopar 37 Sun Top

[@willlowbridge350]

Good pal of mine bought a boat from Tom this year he had been working with Tom for a year or more to find his right boat. From what he said and having met Tom myself on a sea trial it was a great, no pressure, helpful across the whole process. 👍

[@AQUAHOLIC]

He's a good chap 🙂

[@jaimiemadden590]

Got goose bumps when the twin 300’s fired up, this boat rocks and handles very well Like the layout with seating for up to ten makes sure many family or friends can come along Thank you Nick and Tom for today’s tour

[@Morepork123]

Same here with the 300's. Reminds me of when my dad always had outboards on the family runabouts. Great memories and,sadly I never really told him how much I appreciated it.

[@fearhand12]

​@@Morepork123no worries. I'm sure he knew you were enjoying yourself.

[@Morepork123]

@@fearhand12 Thanks👍

[@bryduhbikeguy]

Really nice 'day boat',and a great runabout.Tom landed it as gently as a Doctor laying a newborn into Mom's arms.Well done Axopar,and of course the crew.

[@Coatsey007]

Nice to see the pros at work docking and also giving it plenty out in the open.

[@oneslackr]

Thank you Nick & Tom. It looked like a lot of fun. What is not to like about seeing another Finnish boat being put through its paces.

[@maryholder3795]

An sunny day with Tom, lucky you Nick trip around Torquay bay in a fast boat. She a very stylish practical, but a fast lady with great movability. You had a great time..

[@Kim_Jensen]

What a blast, my hair is still a mess from all the wind 😁😉 great boat, and I bet the Commodore is sorry she was not aboard 😀 Thank you for the experience😀

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thank you for joining us! 🙂

[@jamesulbot]

What a lovely looking boat!

[@chuckwagon7354]

Nick dealing with the fans in real time!

[@taxpayer1040]

I enjoyed this quite a lot! A really good in depth experience. You have helped clearly very many in deciding what is the right boat for them rather than what they might like /think would be the answer.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it 🙂

[@bigcity2085]

That was a great trip , thanks everyone.

[@petergibbs]

I'm not into this kind of boat, but the sound of those engines was very 'Come play with me'. Just the thing to tow behind your superyacht for zipping inro port as you anchor off shore! 😃

[@danielamazing3264]

That was effortless, what a brilliant boat, thanks all involved!

[@godlyobject6509]

This looks like the perfect day. Well done, Nick. Well deserved.

[@CraigNiel]

Wow that thing can really shift, Nick!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Sure can! 😃

[@richardbailey754]

Love the comment - '90lph is not that bad for 27knts'! Shows how mad the boating world is! :)

[@jamarie1972]

Lovely looking boat nice sharp lines. Bet that was a lot of fun. A nice Blast across the Bay. Down at the marina last night a lot better weather than today. Great tour Nick and Marrianne.

[@gorillaguerillaDK]

That’s the one Brabus 900 uses! ❤️❤️❤️ (They just use larger engines, and a lot of leather - of course - it’s BRABUS) I would absolutely love one in the XC version with extra cabin aft - Shadowgreen or deep blue! "The SUV of the Sea" as Brabus calls it!

[@treborretsnom6186]

Very cool Nick, I really like the gullwing hatches for the cabin 👍

[@rasferrastfarian739]

Love me some Bentley, my favorite marque. I see an Axopar and think big boat tender not so much a day boat especially with all those seats! Thanks Nick.

[@johng2400]

They’re definitely there Nick. I came round Berry head Thursday and met a whole pod!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Blighters!

[@colonelklink2164]

"I've seen your videos." Mr. Burnham's renown grows far and wide. He becomes a name to conjure with. Further to that point, the Boat Life channel out of Australia gave a handsome shoutout to our Mr. Burnham a couple of videos ago.

[@robinellard]

Hey… you reviewed my model of boat, 37 T-top. I’ve owned for 9 months so far and used extensively. Offshore we have large swells in Australia, I’d have like a little more freeboard at the bow as you can get water over the front no matter how you trim but that’s 2m+ swell. Great day boat though and good for overnighting if you’re a couple. Storage is excellent. I fitted a bow ladder for running up on beaches and a external removable BBQ holder on port side. Was going to get the grill in the wet bar but that eats up too much bench space. Anyhow, love the boat and can’t wait for another Aussie summer on mine. PS… I have the 350 engine options and can hit 50 knots 😊😊

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Awesome, enjoy!! 😃

[@guythompson4541]

Omg. Nick you’re living everyone’s dream!

[@normbond8888]

The difference between men & boys is the price of their toys. So Nick here is your replacement boat for you & MaryAnne. No wonder Tristan Mortlock from SYC enjoys this boat. Well done.👍🇨🇦🙏

[@allsearpw3829]

YES please and the lads have fun . Thanks for the ride . 😎

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thanks for coming along!

[@scottgordon1781]

Yes,very interesting piece of rock , what I liked to see was where the water level was some time ago .

[@gervers]

Great upload, great boat, great sea trial! Thank you Nick as always and have great weekends one and all!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it! 😃

[@k3nn3hakak34]

Wow really nice day boat with such great speed and handling ,was nice to see you bombing around Torbay and see you in my home town of Brixham .

[@johngauntlett4915]

Nick, again great video! The man definitely knew how to dock a boat.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it 🙂

[@kfeltenberger]

Ah...the Moo engines! Ever since you mentioned that on an older video, I have never been able to unsee it!

[@normbond8888]

Oh what a rush & great of the chaps to do that for you Nick. Hi5 to all.

[@kenholt8297]

Nick, the dolfins are here with me in Sarasota, Florida. 🎉😂🎉

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Aaah, no wonder we couldn't see any! Send a few back please! 😄

[@johnmurray9526]

Amazing how that corners! 😮

[@stanislavczebinski994]

Nice boat. Instead of black finish on the metal bits, a flat grey or silver would work better. The black makes it feel smaller than it actually is. It has to do a lot with perception of space. It could use some additional noise insulation, too. That bow thruster sounds like it's broken....

[@davidsmall7676]

Awesome sea trial! Impressive setup🎉

[@bobuncle8704]

As the great man himself said, That’s fantastic.

[@StayFriendly290]

Your videos are calming me... I really enjoy them very much, greets from Munich ;)

[@AQUAHOLIC]

My pleasure!

[@markwarn6085]

What a great fun boat for all the family.

[@johngauntlett4915]

Nick, great video, Dan from Dan's boat just did a review on I believe the same model. He did give you comps by saying you were the best! He also said nobody could compete with Nick Burnham.

[@nicbennett6554]

Fast, fun day boat!! Great video of what looked like a fantastic trip out on the water. Brilliant!!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it! 😃

[@Mr.E-]

Great fun review… thanks Nick. I really love this brand.. and it’s always nice to see a real on the water experience. 😎✌🏻

[@Sarrienne]

Aw come on, man... You had a mirror in the bathroom and one forward of the cabin, plus that reflective dash - Where's the Wave??!! Bad weather follows me like a curse, so I always favour a fully enclosed cockpit, but I do love a good Axopar. Those gull wing doors are something pretty special and the upgrades to the heads implementation make it SOOOOOOO much more usable!! I must go check out how they do the galley on the aft cabin option, too, as that would really be a decider on whether I went for one of these...

[@SiamLars]

Those moo's sound amazing! 👍

[@guythompson4541]

Thank you

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You're welcome

what a ding dong boat, fantastic stuff, boot it, floor it, give it the beans.... i enjoyed this so much, thanks nick...

[@scottrippon9565]

Hi Nick. Well..... that looked like fun. As I've always said.....there's nothing like a pair of V8s...... you've gotta love a 37' boat that does 45kn + ..... It does handle rather well too....sadly no dolphins . But on the bright side, we got a seal and a Bentley.... and was that an old small blue Formula I spotted.... ? Nice fun day out! Cheers. S

[@akilby8022]

Another great video Nick. Love the Axopar 37 too ❤❤❤

[@dospalmascb]

I'd be sat on those 3 seats at the stern, listening to the music from the Moo's lol. Looks like a fun boat to go with the bently lol great Video Nick.

[@paulgolding1009]

I bet that T45 destroyer was tracking you. A nice bit of power boating and a good layout with a shower installed would make a nice weekender.

[@nolanrunciman5064]

Great sea trial Nick! You looking for dolphins reminds me of our last trip to the bay. Sat in The Imperial having breakfast on a November morning and noticed a few dolphins heading into the bay, then more, and more...... must have been close to a hundred, amazing site!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it 🙂

[@KevinLaswiss-l6m]

That is a sweet boat. It works well here in Toronto ON out on the Big Lake it not get overwhelmed by water as it's long looks super nice ride I wonder if that one guy could drive a princess V60 like that it handle it

[@johnschieffelin3226]

Loved the video. Axopars have sold huge numbers of boats in the USA but I've heard some talk that owners find them to be a tad flimsy over time and that they are pretty lively in a seaway due to their light weight. But the one you tested looked very soft-riding so that feedback about a lively ride may be untrue.

[@FFKB93]

Wonderful boat can’t wait to get one. But I’ll be getting the 37 sun top in the Mediterranean trim. Much more comfortable

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Awesome, enjoy! 😃

Great boat perfect for 3 days of the year the sun is out in the uk 😂, seriously though a beast! Would be fun to blast around on. Those engines sound amazing!

[@foxxster3565]

Looked like a hell of a lot of fun. Thanks for bringing us the joys of boating. I am sure i am not alone in living my boat owning fantasies vicariously through you and your reviews . And Torquay , are you staying at Watery Fowls by any chance.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

No, Fatty Owls.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Glad you enjoyed it! 😃

[@Coatsey007]

It’s a shame I did not see Tom. I had a strange experience with the people selling Axopar’s in Swanwick Marina, it was like pulling teeth, a slightly elitist awkward interaction so I ended up ordering a Saxdor 400 GTC. I’d have snapped me up like Ideal Boats did. I’m confident it’s a good boat, but now I’d recommend the Saxdor.

[@Aran2323]

I thought you'd been saying "Toole Key" whenever you visited this place 😂 0:14 cleared it up for me

Cracking video Nick. The boat itself is probably not one I would consider, but hey ho, horses for courses. A shame no Dolphins. Could you tell between a dolphin or a porpoise?

Great video, Tom makes a host for these types of vlogs.

Nice video Nick! interested boat quick looking, but relatively open boat can it handle the bigger swell though!? you are now Sir David Attenborough with that Seal! anyone spot the Destroyer lurking in the background! .. Greg ruined it! 😂 nicely handled 👍

[@AQUAHOLIC]

No reason why not. 🙂

Please find a virtue v10 twin engine to review. Such a cool boat and under 10m.

45 Knots! Yea! 175 litres per hour......Phew - This boat knows how to drink!! Looks a good ride at that speed though.

[@johningham4942]

Wow! What a brilliant tour of an axopar and sea trial nick! Would you be able to do a trip to the channel Islands on this boat nick?

[@AQUAHOLIC]

It's certainly capable of it, in the right conditions of course.

[@johningham4942]

@AQUAHOLIC it seems a very sea worthy boat and you were not being thrown around at all nick, I am very impressed with this make and model!

[@johngauntlett4915]

Nick, do they offer a sportsman package? That would be a great boat to run to the Bahamas and down the island chain.

[@jkennett9104]

Great boat

[@zk9058]

I havent owned a boat since the late ‘90s. And when i did, the salt water played havoc with my electrical systems. Now that boats have become far less mechanical, and much more computerized, i have to wonder if they are more or less reliable. That digital dash for example, how will that hold up season after season with the salty air doing its thing to it?

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Far more reliable is the feedback I'm getting from manufacturers using this kit with far less warranty issues.

[@motorbiking18650]

I see these out all the time but given the price tag and what else you can get as a weekender, I just don't get it - Gran Turismo or even the Antares would be my choice in this budget.

[@Thjonsson1]

Cool boats, but how is the building quality?

[@mattbromhead323]

Great vid but what did you think of the 'upgraded' 37?
