2021 Multihull of the Year Awardee: Aquila 54 Yacht

In 2021, the Aquila 54 Yacht Power Catamaran was honored with the prestigious Multihull of the Year award in the Multipower category. This accolade, presented by Multihulls World, Multicoques Magazine, and the International Multihull Show, was determined through an open voting system where over 8,300 boating enthusiasts, readers, and industry professionals cast their ballots. The Aquila 54 stood out among five impressive finalists, earning recognition for its exceptional design and performance.​

With a length of 54 feet and a beam just over 25 feet, the Aquila 54 is more than just a pretty hull. It’s engineered for performance, efficiency, and stability—making it ideal for the Philippines’ diverse cruising grounds. Whether you’re hopping across island coves or embarking on longer expeditions, the Aquila 54’s victory underscores its status as a benchmark in the luxury power catamaran segment, blending innovative design with outstanding performance.​

Efficiency by Design: Bulbous Bow Technology

The Aquila 54 achieves a superior performance profile by integrating commercial-grade bulbous bow technology into a luxury yacht framework, fundamentally changing how the vessel interacts with the water. By generating a precise interference pattern that cancels out wave energy, the hull eliminates the "hobby horsing" common in lesser catamarans, allowing the 54 to maintain higher average speeds through chop without sacrificing comfort. This hydrodynamic efficiency significantly reduces drag at semi-displacement speeds, which, when paired with the 54’s substantial fuel capacity, provides an optimized cruising range that outperforms traditional flat-bottom or narrow-entry designs. Furthermore, the strategic lift provided by the foam-cored bow sections ensures the yacht remains level and responsive, granting the captain a level of directional stability and "big boat" predictability that makes navigating demanding offshore conditions both safer and more efficient.
