At a time when most of the major multihull builders' ranges start at 40 feet or even 42, it’s refreshing to see that Aquila Power Catamarans, leader in the powercat market, offering a little sistership to the 32 Sport – though this doesn’t prevent the Chinese-American builder from also being interested in larger units, notably their recent 54 Yacht and 70 Luxury.
The Aquila 28 Molokai was officially launched on December 8, although we already told you about this model over a year ago. The 28 Molokai is offered with an Open deck plan or with an enclosed cabin under the name of Molokai Cuddy. These two models inaugurate a new range called the Offshore. The hulls have very slender bows inspired by Hawaiian pirogues, with a respectable gap between them to ensure a good width to the sidedecks - this has an impact on the position of the outboard motors. We’ve already got a test planned, out of Clearwater, Florida, in the Gulf of Mexico.
