As the newest flagship in Saxdor Yachts’ renowned sports boat lineup, the 400 GTO joins the ranks of her predecessors—the 320 GTO, 320 GTC, and 270 GTO—to redefine expectations in the world of boating.

Unrivaled Open Design

The Saxdor 400 GTO (40’ 7” LOA, 11’ 7” beam) greets you with an unparalleled sense of openness and spaciousness. Her wheelhouse spans the full beam that provides maximum enclosed living space on a level deck with smooth movement from bow and stern. Whether you’re lounging in the main salon or exploring the aft deck, the seamless transition from interior to exterior blurs the lines between inside comfort and outdoor adventure.

The innovative fold-down bulwarks easily expand the size of the living area to offer unobstructed views and direct access to the water. With the option to enclose the salon, you can tailor your onboard experience from sheltered relaxation to embracing the sea breeze and sunshine.

Versatile Seating

Customization is key aboard the Saxdor 400 GTO with modular topside seating that allows you to configure your ideal layout. Whether you prefer a cozy gathering around the table or a row of sporty forward-facing seats for exhilarating cruises, the possibilities are endless. The oversized sofa-sunbed, stretching from the wheelhouse to the cockpit, beckons with its plush cushions and panoramic views, inviting you to unwind in style.

Venture to the recessed foredeck seating, accessible through an innovative windshield door to port of the helm, and discover a secluded oasis on the water. Perfect for intimate gatherings or leisurely sunbathing, this versatile space offers the ideal setting for any occasion from a sunrise breakfast to sunset cocktails.

Cutting-Edge Propulsion and Technology

Beneath her sleek exterior, the Saxdor 400 GTO boasts cutting-edge propulsion and technology, ensuring a thrilling yet efficient performance on the water. The vacuum-infused, twin-stepped hull enhances durability while reducing fuel consumption, allowing you to sail farther for longer.

Equipped with twin 400-hp Mercury V10 outboard engines that will reach up to 52 knots (as tested), the 400 GTO offers unparalleled power and maneuverability. If you are the type of boater who also enjoys race cars, this is the vessel for you. She can navigate tight harbors, cruise at high speeds, and carve turns on the water effortlessly. Her integrated joystick, autopilot, and skyhook features provide precise control and peace of mind. Up to three 16-inch Simrad screens are optional to display navigation packages and monitoring for the engines, batteries, and tanks as well as the sound system.

Comfort Belowdecks

Belowdecks, the Saxdor 400 GTO surprises with her spaciousness and comfort. The bow area offers a double berth for restful nights, and behind the fold-away stairs, there’s room for a single berth perfect for younger guests or as storage space. A dedicated wet head provides ample standing room. An aft cabin with a separate entrance boasts extra headroom and natural light. Though used as a storage area for water toys and the like, opt to add a mattress to create a serene retreat from the excitement above.

The Saxdor 400 GTO sets a new standard for boating excellence, combining innovative design, advanced technology, and uncompromising luxury. Whether you’re seeking adventure on the open seas or relaxation in secluded coves, this remarkable vessel promises an unforgettable experience for boaters of all skill levels. saxdoryachts.com
