Accommodations

OCEAN KITTY is a 2026 Aquila 50 sailing catamaran built for spacious, breezy getaways and effortless island-hopping. Social living is at the heart of her design, with an extendable aft-cockpit table seating up to 12, a dedicated bar area, a forward cockpit for sun lounging, and a flybridge settee with a fixed table and direct access to the bow.

Guest accommodations currently include 4 queen cabins with private ensuite bathrooms, plus 1 forepeak with twin bunk cabins featuring a lower berth and upper bunk. The forepeak cabins are best suited for children, teenagers, or flexible guests comfortable with a cozier sleeping arrangement. At the waterline, a fixed platform between the hulls makes tender boarding and swim time easy, while generous gathering spaces throughout the yacht keep the atmosphere relaxed, connected, and ready for fun.

Crew quarters have not yet been finalized, so the guest accommodation configuration remains subject to change.
