Aquila 45 Sport

Tested in Tampa with Alain Raas

We had the opportunity to preview the newest model in the Sport range in Tampa, Florida, together with Alain Raas, Global Brand Director. 

The Live : 

Within the Sport lineup, this new 45 sits above the 32 and the 36. As expected, the double-stepped hull and powerful engines promise excellent performance - close to 45 knots at top speed and 35 knots at cruising speed. At anchor, the emphasis is on modular living. The cockpit becomes impressively large thanks to fold-down bulwarks and a central sugarscoop, while the outdoor saloon can be transformed at will into an XXL sofa facing a screen that retracts into the transverse galley unit. Four bucket seats face the ultra-connected helm station, with full integration of Android and iOS systems. The builder has also fitted a cozy double cabin along with a fully equipped head.

Full boat test coming soon in an upcoming issue of Multihulls World.
