Aquila 44: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Boat Test Review on BoatTest.com

Overview

The Aquila 44 is designed as an offshore distance cruising power catamaran, offering versatility that allows seamless transition from entertaining guests to extended periods away from the dock. The design emphasizes spaciousness and functionality, catering to both social gatherings and long-term cruising needs.

Exterior Design and Deck Areas

Each hull features a swim platform extending 3 feet 7 inches, with the port side additionally equipped with a swim ladder. The Aquila 44 maximizes volume and space by incorporating an extended seating pod that projects 5 feet 2 inches, which also houses ample storage accessible from beneath the cushions and the sides. Extended platforms accommodate a tender, supported by chocks integrated into tracks and a 350-kilogram capacity crane, presenting a clean, integrated stern profile. Access to the cockpit deck is available via stairs on both port and starboard sides, designed to double as seating areas ideal for supervising swimmers. The aft deck includes U-shaped seating with storage beneath all cushions and a built-in insulated cooler under the port seat. A high-low pedestal table with beverage holders converts into a sun pad when lowered and fitted with a cushion. The deck benefits from substantial overhead protection, with robust stanchions enhancing safety and durability. Additional seating is provided by stools positioned in front of a glass bulkhead door and window, which open to create bar seating adjacent to the aft galley, centralizing social spaces on the main deck.

Flybridge and Upper Deck

Access to the flybridge is via a shallow-angled stairway, reminiscent of residential design for ease of use. The flybridge features a U-shaped aft seating area around a fixed pedestal table with illuminated beverage holders, all sheltered beneath an extended overhead with adjustable leads for increased space. Forward of this is a hatch-covered prep area equipped with a sink, electric grill with heat shield, and storage including an ice maker and optional refrigerator. Two additional seating areas include an L-shaped lounge wrapping around the helm station and a versatile lounge seat on the starboard side that can face forward or inward. The hardtop is notably substantial in both size and structural support, with large stanchions and an arch extending aft. A secondary access point from the main helm to the bow facilitates movement and operational efficiency. The expansive bow area offers significant open space with integrated seating along the rails, though no factory-installed pads or lounges are currently offered.

Galley and Salon

The galley is divided into two sections: a primary area to port and a smaller subsection to starboard. The port galley includes upper storage, a convection microwave oven, an induction two-burner cooktop, and generous counter space with a dedicated dish drying area adjacent to a stainless steel double basin sink. Below counters, additional storage and a pullout trash receptacle are provided. The starboard side offers further counter space suitable for buffet serving, complemented by a refrigerator, freezer, and more storage beneath. A massive dry storage compartment is located under the deck, supporting extended cruising needs. Moving forward, the dining area features U-shaped seating around a fixed or optional high-low pedestal table that can convert into a berth. The salon includes ample counter space, an electrically actuated and rotatable TV lift, and extensive storage including a wine chiller. The interior finish is refined, with Corian counters, leather surfaces, hardwood trim, and recessed lighting. Three interior finish options are available: a leather surface with laminate and hardwood trim, a light ash satin-finished raised veneer with hardwood trim, and a classic cherry interior. Panoramic visibility nearly encircles the main deck, enhancing the sense of openness.

Private Accommodations

The Aquila 44 features three staterooms and three heads, with a unique layout that places a full-beam en suite master stateroom forward in one hull, rather than the typical asymmetrical arrangement. The master offers a spacious environment with 6 feet 4 inches of overhead clearance, an island queen berth measuring 6 feet 7 inches by 5 feet 9 inches, and abundant storage beneath and around the berth. The starboard side includes a versatile office space with a desk and storage that can convert into a vanity with a lighted mirror. Extensive closet space can be adapted to house a stacked washer and dryer, complemented by additional storage and full-length mirrors. Natural light floods the stateroom through multiple side windows with opening port lights, overhead hatches, and hull-side windows. The master head is well-appointed with a vessel sink atop a Corian counter, storage, a walk-in shower with teak decking and seating, and natural light from hull-side windows and port lights. Guest staterooms are located forward of the galley in each hull, each with en suite heads. These cabins feature seven-foot maximum ceiling heights tapering to six feet five inches, ample natural light from side windows and overhead hatches, and berths oriented along the keel for increased spaciousness and accessibility. Memory foam mattresses and extensive storage surround the berths. Wide doorways and thoughtful design elements contribute to an open, uncrowded atmosphere. The guest heads mirror the master in quality, with vessel sinks, Corian counters, walk-in showers with teak decking, and natural light from hull-side windows and hatches. A distinctive feature includes windows positioned at water level, enhancing the connection to the marine environment.

Conclusion

The Aquila 44 power catamaran impresses with its generous open spaces, thoughtful design, and multiple entertainment areas, making it well-suited for both overnight stays and extended cruising. Its combination of spacious accommodations, functional galley and salon, robust exterior features, and versatile flybridge layout provide a balanced platform for liveaboard comfort and social engagement. The boat’s design reflects careful attention to storage, natural light, and operational practicality, supporting its intended role as an offshore distance cruiser with ample amenities.
