Below decks
Aquila had a major overhaul in December 2006 and is fully furnished for comfortable charter cruises. The interior is light and airy, with lots of whites and nice wooden trimmings.
The yacht features four double cabins. The State Room and the 2 King Cabins have en-suite bathroom and shower facilities. The Master Cabin is located in the aft section of the main hull and has a separate entrance. All cabins are well-ventilated with electric fans and opening hatches. Additionally there are 3 single berths. Being a trimaran, with cabins in 3 different hulls, Aquila offers her guests lots of privacy.
Inside you find the galley and covered dining-reading area connecting to a separate deck house where the helm station and another single berth is located.
Above
Above decks Aquila is very spacious with her three separate hulls and wide decks. The netting between the hulls make a great place to relax during passages, read your book, or perhaps take an after lunch nap ....
On the main deck coach roof you find an airy lounge/seating area, with ample coverage from the sun. A great place for open air lunches end afternoon sun downers with a 360 view of the exclusive beauty of our Asian waters.
The diving platform is located in the back of the yacht, with a separate area for kitting up dive gear.
