Summary
The Axopar 45 Sun Top (ST) is a versatile motorboat designed to combine open-air cruising and sheltered comfort. It balances drivability, functionality, comfort and safety to support day-cruising, island-hopping and extended coastal explorations.

Design & social areas
The Sun Top layout prioritizes sociability with large communal zones, multiple seating configurations and flexible aft-deck options. Open and sheltered areas are integrated to provide both sun and shade for passengers.

Highlights / Innovations

• Raised midships balcony doors that extend usable seating area amid social spaces while maintaining safety and comfort.
• Dual electric sunroofs for rapid transition between open-air and sheltered cockpit.
• Gullwing doors and smart cabin access solutions for improved circulation and boarding.

Family & friends comfort
The 45 Sun Top offers modular aft layouts (standard aft sofa; optional U-sofa or aft cabin), multiple upholstery options and ample dry storage. Optional infill cushions convert the U-sofa into a full-size sunbed; upholstery colorways are available as editions.

Helm & handling
Hull and propulsion options focus on drivability and fuel efficiency: vacuum-infused stringers and a twin-stepped sharp-entry hull reduce weight and consumption. Trim tabs, bow thruster and an intelligent steering module bring essential controls to the helm for ergonomic operation.
