Has Saxdor Built an Axopar Beater? NEW Saxdor 400 GTC Tour & Review
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Is the Saxdor 400 GTC the best boat Saxdor has ever built? Not only that, is it the boat to take Axopar’s crown in this popular sector?
Jack Haines gives you a walkthrough tour and review of the Saxdorr 400 GTC after its global launch at the 2024 Düsseldorf Boat Show.
The 400 GTC is based on the T-top GTO, which was launched last year but it has a fully enclosed wheelhouse. The clever thing about the design is that there are no side decks so the wheelhouse can stretch to the full beam of the boat.
Access forward is via a door in the windscreen. Drop-down balconies also connect the wheelhouse to the aft deck with access out to them via sliding doors in the saloon. It’s a flexible layout that be tuned easily to weather conditions.
There is a double cabin forward with a separate bathroom and a surprisingly spacious cabin aft, neatly integrated below the aft sun pad and accessed via a hatch beneath the dinette seat.
With twin Mercury engine options of 350hp or 400hp, the Saxdorr 400 GTC is capable of nearly 50 knots.

Is this the best in class? Let us know in the comments below!
Thank you for demonstrating just how big the aft cabin is. I would have never believed a 6 foot person could fit. I'm now sold on this boat!!!

Glad to be of service! - Jack
If an Axopar 45C is the swiss army knife, the Saxdor 400 GTC is the leatherman! Both are incredible bits of kit but built differently for a variety of boaters.
Nice well laid out, so people can move about freely. Love the drop down balconies really adds to the versatility of the boat. The cabins are comfortable for a weekender boat she does the business.
That is a very nice boat, love the colours and finishes and the helm looks gorgeous. Great tour Jack thank you.
Totally gorgeous boat, more rear seating & less sun-pads. Good review.
Really like the design approach to this Saxdor!
Best package so far of these boat types.
Great tour Jack, thank you. As for which one out of the 3; I think I’d be happy with any, but the Saxdor does edge it for me.
Finally its here
Love it…45’ would be perfect!!!
Gorgeous Boat! Very nice job Cptn. Jack

Many thanks!
Nice one Jack 🙂
Will Saxdor have an option of live bait wells??!! That would be GREAT! And I would get one for sure. The best mix between family comfort and fishing
Great review Jack 👍 Good value for money, a serious contender at this size...

Impressive
For starters is it?? Interesting. Thank you.🎉
Side balconies have become quite a thing- if unbraced they nastily slam shut on the unsuspecting with wake wash. My best in class remains Viggo Boats, this is softer more family friendly and very creature comfort friendly. Nice video Jack.
I actually went through their website yesterday. I would actually like to see the one below this but do like this for the extra cabin. Im just dreaming really as I want a bigger yacht and would use something like this for a chase boat. 40ft maybe a bit big lol.
Yey! Electric barbecue portside.
Great video and the boat is amazing! The only thing I do not like is the headroom in the cabin and head as I am 6ft tall as well. Also, the front cabin bed should be at least a queen size for comfortable weekend trips for couples. Lastly, does this boat have AC? I recall mention of a diesel heater. 48 knots is impressive for a boat this size!
Great tour - love this boat! Just an FYI that looks like the new 320 model in your thumbnail pic..

Great policy 😂
Like to see the front door to the bow built like the 320 gct
Still, cutting-edge Saxdor 400 GTC, very nice coastal cruising boat. But I do not get why they change the previous forward sloping windshield design to backward sloping windshield. Forward sloping design creates more space and makes the whole boat more well balanced actually. Anyway, thanks for the tour, still an amazing Saxdor.
Yes please , after a sea trial .🤔 Thanks jack . Which would you choose ?
The seats don’t need arm rest for the driver and passenger but could be a nice luxury addition to the boat. Same with any axopar boat. I haven’t seen any axopar boat with armrest.
How does this compare to the Axopar 45?
Funny thing is that Axopar and Saxdor are from the same founder. He has also done XO and Aquador brands

And Paragon is from the same guy too. Axopar name comes from A(quador), XO, PAR(agon).
I love the glass deckhouse! Will you be reviewing the larger Saxdor 460 GTC too?

Is it large by size? 😮 I thought it was 400GTC but with a better performance motors!
Must feel humbling to Axopar guys as others are trying to follow what they have done. Kind a same when all phone producers where trying to make Apple killers. Is it better that axopar dont know but competition is good. Now its only about whom is able to have better quality in what they are doing :)
Lots of clever design but, it is expensive for the facilities it offers.
Saxdor all the way. You can't find an Axopar that hasn't been marked up like a GT3RS or a G-wagen. They Jack the prices up on all,of them. Marinemax was jacking up the price on the Sargos and also the new Marex down in Palm Beach. Adding 35 to 50k!!! That is unreal and borderline criminal
Kinda like the Axopar a little better. Still, this is a good boat, especially if you have to get somewhere fast.
PLEASE make that rear driver side compartment an AQUARIUM LIVE WELL!! And put rod holders throughout the boat! I would sell my house to buy this boat TOMORROW!!
What about the price?

It’s at the start of the video: €260,000 ex VAT
After seeing it in person, i went for Beneteau flyer 10. Saxdor looks great, but it’s a party boat, without room inside. And build quality is not that great
This Saxdor makes the Axopar look like a joke. Can never understand why anyone would buy an Axopar, it’s unusable in ever way. This boat look great, is so usable as a day boat, looks fantastic and whilst it has sleeping capability, is far better than the Axopar it’s still claustrophobic, particularly the rear cabin which is no more than a horizontal cupboard.

Please consider normalizing your volume across your videos? The radical volume swings are so bad that, no joke, one second I was listening to you speak and then next it literally just knocked a plant off my TV shelf and I have water, dirt, and glass all over my floor.

YUCK.. the Quarken MUCH better.
sigh. yawn. yet another axopar facsimile. this whole corner of the market has nearly worn itself out. well presented, jack. thanks.
A great addition to this yacht would be an electric side helm window mechanism which would allow to lower it like on Galeon yachts. I just love to drive the boat with my elbow out like in a car.
