If you're looking one of the most thoughtfully upgraded and best-equipped Aquila 44s on the market, this 2023 model deserves your attention. This boat has never been charted, is imported and is as turn key as they come. Designed for serious cruising and meticulously maintained, this vessel has been upgraded far beyond factory specifications to provide greater comfort, reliability, and ease of operation.
Whether your plans include coastal cruising, the Great Loop, island hopping through the Bahamas, or extended liveaboard adventures, this Aquila 44 is ready to go from day one.

The result is a flexible space that functions as a comfortable third guest cabin while also providing significantly increased storage capacity and room for a permanent fourth refrigerator, making this Aquila exceptionally well suited for extended cruising, the Great Loop, or months spent in the islands.
