SaxdorBoats, models and buyer's guide

Finnish brand with compact and medium sized sports motor boats. Saxdor is known for striking hull designs and boats combining day trips and water sports. Those who look into Saxdor motor boats, often encounter many designs and years of construction. This guide helps to understand the differences without identifying one model as the obvious best choice.

What sets Saxdor apart among motorboats?

The 200, 270 and 320 series do not target exactly the same user. One version is explicitly open and compact, the other offers more protection and comfort.

You notice the value of a good sideboard especially during the construction. Therefore check the safety and accessibility of frequently used points on deck. The ideal boat not only feels comfortable in the harbour. Check the way you want to sail during a test trip or vision, operation and sound.

Who are Saxdor boats for?

Saxdor suits people who care about manoeuvrability and modern design, but also care about ease of construction, practical running space and the chosen engine.

It is wise to assess the boat in the context of your sailing area. Depth, width and required boating licenses are not the same for each vessel or route. Think how much time you spend in the tub, on the fore deck and inside. A spacious salon is pleasant, but has less value if you mainly take short trips in the outdoors.

• Documents: See if the available technical drawings correspond to the installations you actually find on board.

• Particularities: Let a specialist assess whether repairs to construction or hull have been performed appropriately.
