I have watched a lot of Captain Steve's review videos and he's right we are well aware of his love for catamarans/trawlers/super yachts/center consoles/ribs/jet skis/canoes/tri-marans, sailing, florida, etc. etc. Just kidding, do really enjoy your work!
I'm slightly surprised they didn't incorporate the foiling tech from the 36 footer and inward leaning engines like Insetta and Hammer use. A very nice "starter" cat from one of my wish-list companies!
Amazed to see life jacket being worn in FLA…seems like only Captain Steve is to only Floridian boater who wears a life jacket. If you didn’t know better you’d think, by observation, that life jackets are illegal in FLA bec it looks like no one wears them.
Fuel economy is questionable. Other boats similar length to get better fuel economy, and not by just a little. Boat may do better with slightly more power, could be an underpower issue.
Kinda disappointed in our favorite boat maker. Could’ve done SO much more with seating, head, transom ladder (take notes from world cat), and hard top. Dang it please try again 😎 Love your videos Boat Test, keep up the great work!!
I agree. Also, this top power spec is not enough. 45 mph is just too slow, and the cruise speed/fuel economy very slow, and worse than many similar size monohulls.
This boat screams “cost cutter“, with the 12” screen being a perfect example. And, such poorly designed helm. For what it costs, I’d rather buy an older Freeman and have it refurbished for a much nicer, more capable boat.
For starters, what's wrong with being built to a budget? Or with a 12" display let alone two 12" displays? It's a CC those displays are right in his face, not a few feet away from him in a glass dash of a yacht's captain's throne. As for why the helm's bad, go for it...
@@darthkek1953 Have a look at modern, high-end CC’s, like Freeman, Fountain, and others, as to why. It looks as if they didn’t know what to do. Again, for their asking price, it’s a letdown.

Great video! It's good to see you back, Cpt. Steve.
First thing I'm buying after $AMC squeezes 😂
The Captain is BACK!😃

Great business decision by Aquila to get into this market.
Thanks Capt. Steve
Handles the rough water with ease!
Me: How much is this $180K boat?
Marine Max: $300K
Waiting for the interest rates to rise and the boat market to crash…

Liking that cuddy version

Very nice boat 🚢 👌 👍 😍 congrats 👏
I really like this Cat.
World best design boat
Hey Captain Steve, can you review Cutwater 24 Coupe, please? Cutwater 24 Coupe is MY DREAM BOAT!!!
Great suggestion, will share with the team!
I like this boat my only issue is you have to stay standing all time to ride this boat and can see from the front windshield.
I'm sure those hardtop supports are strong, but do they really need to be that thick? They look like the would block a fair bit of vision.
Not certain but Aquila may have been thinking forward to a second control station, especially for offshore fishing.
I was thinking that too.
Hi,Capitan 👍👍🇵🇷🇵🇷

0.11 only using the port engine??

cutty class....
so best cruise is 22mph with TWIN 200 hp engines but on 1 ( one ) 200hp engine she cruises at 26mph . somethings not right with this.
Sorry, but at that price point being "comfortable enough" is ridiculous.
Too focused on fishing.
This boat is begging for twin 300s
240k discounted with 200's, stupid but they will sell them...should be 150k max...and the hull is made in China...
Disappointing, I was expecting far more from Aquila
No thanks.

Aquila Boats - Made in China. NO THANKS!!
Bow seating looks cheesy and cheap.
