Description
Aquila 28 Molokai Power Catamaran
Born from the Pacific. Built for Anywhere “Out There” Takes You.Meet the Aquila 28 Molokai Power Catamaran—a bold, seaworthy vessel inspired by Hawaii’s demanding ocean environment and crafted to deliver unmatched performance, versatility, and confidence on the water. Whether you're a professional angler, charter operator, or recreational boater seeking a rugged and reliable offshore machine, the 28 Molokai is purpose-built for you.
This model is a celebration of Aquila’s heritage in performance catamarans, designed to take on big water with grace, provide maximum functionality across multiple boating roles, and deliver a level of comfort and security that sets a new standard for this class of vessel.
Performance-Driven Design Born from Island Seas
Developed to tackle the challenging waters between Hawaii’s islands, the Aquila 28 Molokai boasts a performance pedigree unlike anything else in its class. Its twin-stepped catamaran hull delivers remarkable efficiency, high-speed stability, and a dry, smooth ride through all sea conditions.
The boat is powered by twin Mercury outboards—available in configurations from 200HP to 225HP each—giving it the muscle to run with the best of them. Optional Mercury Joystick Piloting provides intuitive, fingertip control for docking and tight maneuvering, while digital throttle and shift systems ensure smooth, responsive acceleration.
What truly sets the Molokai apart is its double hull design, which offers superior tracking, wave-piercing agility, and an incredibly stable platform for any type of boating activity. Unlike traditional monohulls, the Molokai remains level and composed—minimizing fatigue on long runs and instilling confidence in novice and experienced boaters alike.
V ersatility That Knows No Limits
The Aquila 28 Molokai is not just an offshore sportfisher—it’s a multifunctional powerhouse. Equally at home chasing tuna miles offshore or pulling into a waterfront restaurant, it adapts seamlessly between hardcore angling, family fun, commercial charter work, or island-hopping adventures.
O ffshore Fishing & Tournament Ready
Designed with the input of pro anglers, the layout includes:
360-degree fishability thanks to wide walkaround decks and an open transom
Flush-mounted rod holders, rocket launchers, and tackle storage
High-capacity livewells with aeration systems
In-deck insulated fish boxes for your biggest catches
Optional outrigger mounts and downrigger hardpoints
Self-bailing deck with raw water washdown
Whether you’re deep dropping, trolling, casting, or drifting, this boat supports serious fishing without compromise.
Family, Charter & Recreational Use
When not competing or working, the Molokai transforms into an ideal family day boat or charter platform, thanks to:
Generous bow seating for up to 10 guests
Optional removable cocktail table for socializing
Bluetooth-enabled Fusion sound system for entertainment
Freshwater washdown, marine head options, and storage
Boarding ladder and wide transom platform for swimmers and divers
The result? A boat that offers serious capability during the week and ultimate relaxation on the weekend.
Comfort and Utility: Where Function Meets Form
While the Molokai is born for battle with rough seas, it doesn’t sacrifice comfort. Aquila’s thoughtful design approach ensures every inch of the boat is optimized for usability, ergonomics, and guest enjoyment.
