2016 Aquila 48

The Aquila 48 is a 48-foot power catamaran built on a fiberglass hull with twin Volvo Penta engines rated at 450 horsepower each. Designed as a modern evolution of the sub-50-foot powercat category, the boat combines robust construction with practical engineering. The hull features reinforced structure throughout and specialized crush compartments in the bow for added structural integrity.

The engine room is notably spacious, with generous access around both engines to facilitate maintenance and service work. This layout reflects a design priority on operational ease and long-term durability. The catamaran's wide 23.5-foot beam provides the platform for comfortable accommodations and onboard living.

Built in 2016, the Aquila 48 represents a design collaboration between naval architects, engineers, and experienced builders focused on balancing performance with the comfort standards expected in a modern luxury powercat.
