    It’s not pocket change, but certainly a budget power cat.
    I like the power cat concept, but I’d rather a second hand, higher quality alternative than this brand new.
    Great tour Hugo, thanks.

    It doesn’t do anything for me, I’d rather spend more for something a little more special

    Saloon and galley look like something you'd find in a caravan in Prestatyn

    Nice boat but i think more for the USA boating. If you want a power cat that functional that does the job this is good boat for you. Nice tour Hugh showing all the pros and cons of her. Interesting boat.

    Though I tend to like the Aquila cats, love the smaller outboard we saw a glimpse of, the 42' is my least favorite. The 54' is one of my dream boats, in great part because of the owner's cabin. My biggest issue is the helm. With just the upper helm, you really need to enclose it, at least for the Florida/Caribbean market.

    I hate to say it...but 'built in China' is not a great look for an American boat.

    Nice tour as always. The boat looks ok but I'd probably go for something else.

      You have the great option of the Leopard power cat fleet in your neck of the woods boet. Beautiful design.

      I think that title more aptly belongs to the Aventura 10.

    I'm not properly clued up on the average costs of supercats or boats in general but this just looks so cheap. Built on a shoestring by the looks of it. Surely there won't be many of those flying off the berth for that price. Avid MBY and Aquaholic viewer and as much as Hugo tried to focus on and emphasize the pros....and minimise the cons, this is easily one of the most uninspiring boats I've seen.

    It's beyond me how they build such a cheap boat, then sell it for over 1 million dollars. 💸
    Everything about Aquila screams piss poor fit and finish.

    Don't really like the cat either....
