ALTAIR — 2019 Aquila 44 | Turnkey, US-Flagged, Single-Owner Confidence
Step aboard ALTAIR and feel how dialed-in a well-kept Aquila can be. US-flagged and single-owner from day one, this 44-foot power cat marries effortless handling with true liveaboard comfort. Volvo D4-300s (≈800 hrs) deliver quiet, economical cruises; a Fischer Panda generator (≈300 hrs), water maker, and new inverter (Sept 2025) keep you comfortably off-grid. With major systems refreshed in 2024 and smart upgrades like Starlink High Performance, ALTAIR is genuinely ready to go—no punch-list, no drama, just point the bows and roll.
A Quick Walkthrough
Wide swim platforms lead to a shaded cockpit set up for easy entertaining. The aft galley serves both salon and cockpit with two fridge/freezers, while big windows keep the views front-and-center. Up top, the expansive flybridge adds an ice maker and clear new eisenglass (2024) for all-weather lounging. Below, each stateroom gets its own TV and Fusion stereo, with efficient A/C throughout—air-conditioning replaced (2024)—so nights on the hook feel like nights at home. A Highfield dinghy rides along for beach runs and harbor exploring; a packed safety kit with liferaft adds the peace of mind you want offshore.

Reliability upgrades (2024): shafts replaced & strengthened, props rebalanced, full engines/gen service (late 2024)
Comfort upgrades: exterior upholstery replaced (2024), A/C replaced (2024), new eisenglass (2024)
Off-grid ready: water maker, Fischer Panda gen, new inverter (Sep 2025)
Connected anywhere: Starlink High Performance for streaming, work, and weather anytime
