Axopar 38 unveiled at Boot Düsseldorf 2026
Axopar introduces the all-new Axopar 38, debuting at Boot Düsseldorf 2026 and setting new benchmarks for modularity, comfort and drivability.


Utilising Compass’ Latitude limousine platform to expedite the build time, this 10.3m limousine primarily serves MY Jester, the support vessel to the Turquoise-built MY Infinite Jest, but both superyachts are equipped with a garage space to carry the limousine.
“The brief was for a luxury limousine that could serve dual purposes – a smart and sophisticated tender with a solid performance. The support yacht, Jester, was originally launched in 1972 and in refit at Pendennis Shipyard in the UK. The new-build, Infinite Jest, was already nearing completion at Turquoise Yachts when the Owner’s team turned to us for a tender solution. Working closely with all parties, we adapted the design of our semi-custom Latitude model to suit client requirements and completed the build in just 15 months.” – Richard Faulkner, Founder and CEO, Compass Tenders.


Compass’ Latitude series of limousine options feature naval architecture by Patrick Banfield, with exterior design and styling by Compass’ in-house team.
In this instance, the tender’s window shapes and shearline were adapted to give an aesthetic more in keeping with the mothership.
Embodying Compass’ design and build expertise amassed from over 17 years in business and the completion of 70 custom tender builds, this 10.3m limousine features a sliding glass roof system, custom handrails, and an air-conditioned cabin space with ambient lighting and leather detailing. The overall style is sleek, light, and minimalist.

The tender can be boarded at the bow or via the aft boarding steps, which meet seamlessly with the mothership’s stern platform. The tender has a stowed height of 2m, a draft of just 0.55m, and a top speed of 38 knots derived from two Yanmar 4LV-250HP inboard diesel engines and two Yanmar ZT370 stern drives. There is seating capacity for 16 passengers and two crew.

The tender’s mothership, Jester, and primary superyacht, Infinite Jest, were awarded with the Voyager’s Award at this year’s World Superyacht Awards, with Infinite Jest also securing the Neptune for best Displacement Motor Yachts, 1,500GT and above.
