Launched over 10 years ago now, the Aquila 44 is one of the very few powercats to have sold over 200 examples... But a manufacturer capable of launching three new models a year isn’t necessarily going to keep its 44 going forever.
Aquila Power Catamarans has therefore announced a new 46 Yacht. For the time being, both models will remain in the shipyard’s catalog, but it’s a safe bet that the 44 will be discontinued very soon. In terms of layout, the highlight of the new 46 is the option of a three-cabin version with a huge owner’s cabin forward that spans the entire width of the boat.
The manufacturer offers its Aquila Hydro Glide® foiling system as an option for increased efficiency and range, fully integrated C-Zone digital switching as standard, and the option of adding a lithium battery bank.
The Aquila 46 Yacht will be previewed in Europe (a first for the Sino-American yard) at the Cannes Yachting Festival in September and followed by the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show in October.
