Aquila 42C and 46C Powercat coupe to debut at the 2025 Miami Boat Show

Aquila is launching a pair of new Coupé powercats - the 42C and 46C will debut in February at the 2025 Miami Boat Show. The first of a whole new Coupé line-up, they combine twin-step hulls and foil-assistance for fast, efficient cruising. Called AHG (Aquila Hydro Glide), this system comprises of two carbon-fibre foils: one amidships and the other aft. These two foils generate sufficient lift to raise the boat slightly out of the water, reducing the wetted surface and improving fuel efficiency - which is significantly increasing the range.

 

The 42 and 46 feet coupe versions will attract customers with their good looks, strong construction and a full list of amenities on board. The 42C comes with either twin 400hp Mercury Verado V10 outboards, or 380hp Volvo Penta D6 sterndrives. The bigger sister, the 46C will have the option of twin 600hp Mercury Verado V12 outboard engines, or twin 440hp Volvo sterndrives. Both models are Category B certified, have a shallow draft and top speeds around the 40 knot mark. The range will be between 330-380 Nautical miles, depending on engine choice.
