Aquila 46 Coupe: The Next Evolution in Entertainment-Centric Cruising

When Aquila debuted the 36 Sport Power Catamaran, few could have predicted the impact it would have on the global market. Approaching 300 units sold worldwide, the model helped redefine expectations for comfort, performance, and utility in the power catamaran space. Now, Aquila has taken everything they’ve learned from their successful lineup—including the Sport, Yacht, and Center Console lines—and delivered something refreshingly different: the new Aquila 46 Coupe.

A Vision Rooted in Evolution

The 46 Coupe isn’t just another model—it’s a response to shifting trends in how boaters want to cruise. Over the past few years, Aquila has seen increasing demand for what they call the “Cruiser Package”: a fully enclosed helm, a full-height windshield, and an entertainment-first layout. This led to the creation of the Aquila Coupe line, starting with the 42 Coupe and now culminating in the all-new 46.

Designed for Extended Escapes

The 46 Coupe is built for more than day trips. It’s a genuine regional cruiser, offering the comforts of larger yachts while retaining the sporty DNA of Aquila’s smaller models. Inside, the two-stateroom, two-head layout offers unexpected luxury. The primary cabin features a full king-size berth facing outboard for excellent views, while the guest stateroom to port offers ample space and privacy. Both cabins are equipped with dry heads and full showers, underscoring the boat’s commitment to comfort during longer voyages.

Every inch of the 46 Coupe is designed for socializing and relaxation. The salon flows seamlessly from the aft cockpit, where a Kenyan grill, refrigerator (convertible to freezer or ice maker), and optional Makefast shade system transform the space into a top-tier entertaining area. Inside, a high-low table adds versatility to the salon, and a large optional sunroof lets in natural light for that open-air feeling—even when fully enclosed.

A Hull That Performs

While the interior speaks to comfort and luxury, the underbody of the 46 Coupe tells a performance story. Aquila is the leader in production-based boats with foil assist technology. This technology utilizes carbon fiber fixed foil, which activates at speeds over 21 mph, reducing wetted surface and hydrodynamic drag. Add to that a double-step hull and precision hull shaping, and the result is a boat that not only looks sleek, but truly moves.

With twin Mercury 600 V12 outboards standard, and optional Volvo Penta DPI 480 inboards, owners can choose the propulsion package that best fits their cruising needs. Both setups deliver impressive performance: wide open, the 46 Coupe can hit 48 to 49 mph, with comfortable cruising speeds between 35 and 42 mph.

Options That Elevate

Customization is key with the 46 Coupe. The aft deck can be configured differently depending on your engine choice, with various seating and entertainment setups available. The helm features three luxurious bucket seats, a top-tier nav station, and extensive options for navigation tech, camera systems, and displays. Forward, the bow is a plush sun lounge—perfect for those calm afternoons at anchor.

No matter where you sit aboard the 46 Coupe, the experience is pure Aquila: stable, smooth, and sumptuous. The catamaran platform delivers unmatched stability and space, while smart design choices ensure both efficiency and elegance.

The Future of the Coupe Line

The 46 Coupe is not the end of the story. Aquila has plans to expand the Coupe and Sport lines further, recognizing that owners today are looking for boats that can do it all—entertain, cruise, and perform.

If you’re looking for a stylish, performance-driven, and highly livable power catamaran, the Aquila 46 Coupe may just be the perfect fit.
