Aquila 50: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Overview

The Aquila 50 Sailing Catamaran represents a significant new entry in the cruising catamaran market, blending the innovation and performance DNA of Aquila Yachts with a sailing platform. This 50-foot vessel is designed to appeal to sailors and cruisers seeking a reliable, high-quality sailing catamaran with versatile cabin layouts ranging from three to six cabins. Developed through close collaboration between Aquila and the Catamaran Company, the Aquila 50 sailboat is positioned as a practical, innovative, and durable option for both private owners and charter operators.

Exterior Design and Deck Features

The Aquila 50 sailing catamaran features a sleek and stylish exterior designed by the renowned European design firm J&J Design. The vessel incorporates a sloping window line combined with vertical salon windows, allowing a walkthrough door that connects the salon directly to the aft cockpit, enhancing flow and accessibility. The cockpit itself is spacious with two large lounging areas and an integrated bar, a signature feature of Aquila yachts. A standout innovation is the retractable crane platform at the stern, which simplifies tender handling by lifting the tender with a single lifting point and retracting neatly under the flybridge seating when not in use. This system is more reliable and easier to operate than traditional hydraulic davits. The flybridge includes a center helm station with controls conveniently placed for the helmsman, and a large U-shaped salon area that can be fully enclosed to protect from rain. Additional deck features include walkways on both sides providing direct access from the flybridge to the foredeck, a concealed Kenyon barbecue grill on the starboard aft deck, and ample lounging and storage spaces.

Interior Living Spaces

The interior of the Aquila 50 sailing catamaran is designed for comfort and functionality, with high-quality finishes and cabinetry. The galley is well-equipped with modern appliances including an induction stove, Bosch ovens, a wine cooler, and a full-size Samsung refrigerator. The salon benefits from large vertical windows that provide excellent visibility and natural light. Each cabin has its own private entrance, separate shower, and head, eliminating the need for wet heads and enhancing privacy. The forward cabins are particularly versatile, capable of serving as workshops, offices, or laundry facilities thanks to ample storage and countertop space. The boat also features a comprehensive monitoring system that tracks water tanks, electrical systems, and generator controls, accessible both in the salon and at the flybridge helm.

Construction and Durability

Aquila Yachts employs advanced construction techniques to ensure the Aquila 50 sailing catamaran is both strong and durable. The hull is molded in one piece using vinylester resin, an upgraded resin type that offers superior resistance compared to polyester resin commonly used by other manufacturers. Importantly, no structural wood is used below the waterline; instead, the boat utilizes closed-cell foam coring and laminated bulkheads that are precisely engineered for strength and weight savings. The sacrificial keels are designed to protect the hull during groundings and can be replaced independently if damaged. The entire build process is conducted in a climate-controlled, environmentally friendly shipyard, ensuring consistent quality and longevity. These construction choices contribute to the vessel's reputation for durability and high resale value.

Performance and Propulsion Options

The Aquila 50 sailing catamaran is offered with both traditional diesel propulsion and a hybrid electric option, catering to a range of cruising preferences. The design includes space for factory-installed flush-mounted solar panels on the bimini and aft deck, providing up to four kilowatts of solar power to complement the lithium battery banks. The hybrid version features a larger battery bank to support electric drives, aligning with modern demands for eco-friendly and efficient propulsion. The rig features a double spreader setup, which offers enhanced tuning capabilities, strength, and reliability compared to the single spreader rigs common in this size category.

Private Accommodations

The Aquila 50 sailboat offers flexible accommodation layouts with three to six cabins, each designed to maximize privacy and comfort. Every cabin has its own dedicated entrance, shower, and head, a rare feature in sailing catamarans of this size. The cabins are well-appointed with quality cabinetry and ample storage. The forward cabins provide additional versatility, allowing owners to customize these spaces as workshops, offices, or laundry rooms. The overall design supports comfortable living aboard for families, couples, or charter guests.

Conclusion

The Aquila 50 Sailing Catamaran is a thoughtfully designed vessel that combines Aquila’s proven power catamaran expertise with the demands of serious cruising sailors. Its innovative features, durable construction, flexible layouts, and modern propulsion options position it strongly in the mid-sized cruising catamaran market. With a focus on reliability, ease of use, and practical luxury, the Aquila 50 aims to deliver a compelling package for both private owners and charter operators. The first boats are expected to arrive in early 2026, with demonstrations planned at major boat shows, offering an opportunity to experience this new model firsthand.
