At 14 meters long and over 7 meters wide, the new Aquila 46 Yacht aims to make ocean cruising accessible on a power catamaran. Built in China by Sino Eagle Yachts, this model will be on display at the Cannes boat show in September 2025.
A Category A-certified 14-metre catamaran: for whom and what?
The 46 Yacht boasts CE Category A certification, synonymous with the ability to sail in high winds and heavy seas. This positioning is rare for motor catamarans under 15 meters. It is clearly aimed at yachtsmen wishing to move away from coastal cruising and envisage long, safe crossings. This choice imposes criteria of stability, buoyancy and reinforced structure.
Generous width to maximize interior space
The 7.09-meter (23-foot) beam gives the 46 Yacht a living volume comparable to that of larger units. The full-width owner's cabin includes a king-size bed and a bathroom with separate shower. The central saloon, with all-round glazing, houses an L-shaped galley with domestic equipment, large-capacity refrigerator and induction hob.
Three configuration versions for customizing the navigation program
The Aquila 46 Yacht is available with 3, 4 or 5 cabins. The three-cabin version focuses on the comfort of couples with guests. The four-cabin version, also convertible, offers greater flexibility for families or co-boaters. The five-cabin version is ideal for charter operations. This level of modularity is an asset for yachtsmen who choose according to the use of the boat.
Energy autonomy and on-board technology
The catamaran can be fitted with a lithium battery system and the Aquila Hydro Glide Foil System. The latter aims to reduce fuel consumption by improving hydrodynamic efficiency. All systems are centralized via C-Zone for electrical management. These technological choices are designed to increase autonomy and on-board management without the need for manual intervention.
Living areas designed for small crews
The upper wheelhouse offers direct access to the bow. The aft cockpit extends the saloon with large opening windows. Access to the sea is via the aft decks of each float. The design aims to facilitate circulation, even with a reduced crew. The optional interior helm station makes all-weather cruising possible, an appreciated feature in regions with unstable weather.
The official presentation of the Aquila 46 Yacht is scheduled for the Cannes Yachting Festival in September 2025.
