Boatfest West Exeter 2026: 11th-12th April : show preview
Boatfest West (Exeter) 2026 launches at Exeter Racecourse as its first event at this venue, with free tickets, boats, watersports…


Building on the success of the recently launched 50 Yacht Power Catamaran, the new Coupe series combines all the fun of an open-air sport boat with the cabin comforts of a yacht, offering unprecedented usable space rarely found in vessels of this size range. Available with both inboard and outboard propulsion and standard Aquila Hydro Glide Foil System™, these sleek and sporty catamarans are perfect for a day at the sandbar, a night under the stars, or a weekend excursion to an exciting destination.




“Aquila has always skated to where the puck is going, and the Coupe series represents an opportunity that we see in the market in between a sport boat and yacht,” says Jean Raas, chief product officer & chief executive officer of Aquila USA. “We wanted to meet the needs of boaters who have outgrown day boats, but maybe don’t want a full-size yacht, as well as current yacht owners who want to downsize without sacrificing performance and comfort.”
In addition to the debut of the Aquila 42 Coupe and 46 Coupe, they will be showcasing the 54 Yacht, 50 Yacht, 44 Yacht, 42 Yacht, 47 Molokai, 36 Sport and 36 Sport, offering a diverse range of options for boating enthusiasts.
