Boat Details
Description
Brabus Shadow 500 Cabin is based on the updated hull of the Axopar 28 Cabin MkII – renowned for its stability, smooth ride, and precise handling even in rough seas. In Brabus form, it transforms into an entirely new boat, where performance, design, and comfort merge into a powerful yet easy-to-handle package. With twin Mercury ProXS V8 engines (500 hp), electric steering, bow thruster, and trim tabs, the helm feels both secure and explosive – whether you prefer cruising at 40 knots or gliding calmly into the evening sun.
Trade-in of a smaller boat is of interest. For example;
• RIB Boat
• Aluminum boat
At the same time, this is a boat designed for life onboard – not just for speed. The cabin provides protection, overnight accommodation, and comfort even on cooler days, while expansive open areas, sunbed, foredeck lounge, swim platform, and aft deck shower make it ideal for warm summer days with family and friends. The electrically opening canvas roof transforms the entire cabin into an open-air space, and the sound system turns every trip into an experience.
The exterior is uniquely Brabus: Platinum Grey hull, carbon fiber railings, black anodized detailing, and Brabus Red sunbed cushions. Inside, the theme continues with Brabus Fine Leather, red contrast stitching, LED lighting, a Fusion stereo with 1600W amplifier, and smart storage solutions. Navigation is handled by twin 12” Garmin plotters with radar and VHF – all integrated into a Brabus-designed helm layout.
This specific boat was built in 2020 as part of the Brabus demo series but was not delivered or commissioned until 2023. Only one owner, lightly used, and under 50 engine hours. Winter-stored indoors and serviced by authorized workshops. Engine warranty and hull warranty until May of 2028.
A boat for those who want power, refinement, and comfort – with a design that stands out in any harbor.
