Broker Overview

The 2018 Aquila 36 Power Catamaran, "Katz Azz," presents a compelling opportunity for buyers seeking a versatile and stable platform in the 36-foot range. This model is well-regarded for its efficient use of space, offering two private cabins with ensuite heads, which is a significant advantage for a vessel of this size. The catamaran hull form provides exceptional stability, both underway and at anchor, a key characteristic that enhances comfort for all aboard, particularly those prone to seasickness. Powered by twin Mercury 350 CXXL outboards, this Aquila 36 offers a good balance of performance and fuel efficiency for coastal cruising and island hopping. The design prioritizes social areas, with a spacious cockpit, a wide bow, and a functional flybridge, making it ideal for entertaining or family outings. While not a long-range cruiser, its capabilities are well-suited for extended weekends or week-long excursions in its intended cruising grounds. The asking price of $389,000 positions it competitively within the used power catamaran market, especially considering its condition and amenities. We recommend a thorough inspection to confirm its mechanical and structural integrity, as with any pre-owned vessel.

Expert Review

The Aquila 36 is a well-engineered power catamaran known for its robust fiberglass construction and practical design. Its twin-hull configuration delivers superior stability and a smoother ride compared to monohulls of similar length, particularly in choppy conditions. Performance with twin Mercury 350s is responsive, offering good cruising speeds and efficient fuel consumption for a boat of this type. Maneuverability is excellent, making docking straightforward. When considering a pre-owned Aquila 36, pay close attention to engine service records, especially on outboards of this vintage. Inspect the condition of the electrical systems, plumbing, and air conditioning. Check for any signs of water intrusion around hatches or windows, and assess the condition of the gelcoat and deck hardware. Comparables might include smaller Fountaine Pajot or Leopard power catamarans, but the Aquila typically offers a more contemporary interior and a strong focus on outdoor living spaces. At its asking price, this vessel represents a solid value proposition for a family cruiser or entertainment platform.
