Aquila Goes Sailing: Exclusive interview with Sail Magazine

Some call it expansion. We call it completing the picture—bringing Aquila’s proven catamaran excellence to every way you want to experience the water.

While most marine manufacturers follow predictable industry patterns, Aquila has always chosen the road less traveled. Our latest venture—expanding into sail catamarans—represents the same visionary thinking that revolutionized the power catamaran industry, now applied to the timeless art of sailing.

In an exclusive interview with Sail Magazine’s Lydia Mullan, Aquila’s leadership team, Lex Raas, Jean Raas, and Alain Raas, reveals the strategic thinking behind this groundbreaking decision. The conversation explores how Aquila’s « Out There Starts Here » philosophy seamlessly translates from power to sail, and why the future of catamaran excellence isn’t about choosing between wind and engine, it’s about mastering both.

This candid discussion offers rare insights into the decision-making process of a marine industry leader willing to challenge conventions and expand possibilities. Whether you’re a power enthusiast curious about sailing or a sailor interested in Aquila’s unique perspective, this interview reveals how true innovation happens when visionary thinking meets new horizons.
