PREPARE YOURSELF.... Prepare your imagination to run wild with the countless places, activities and adventures you could have on all corners of the globe with a hull form like this!
This Molokai 47 by Aquila Yachts has to be one of the most interesting designs I have had the pleasure of testing. The reason I say that is because with a platform like this you really are without limits. She has range, she'll handle big seas, she's got bucket loads of speed and the design and space utilization makes this something that will appeal to a wide variety of ocean lovers.
I'm actually excited to see all the interesting adventures that you guys have planned for this boat and can't wait to see all the different environments this Molokai 47 ends up serving.
If you are looking for a fantastic all rounder that is finished to a very high standard then do yourself a favor and inspect this boat.
This one's a cracker so I hope you enjoy!

exactly they only went with with the following sea which means the boat test really doesnt show that much on how the boat can handle the waves. turn that sucker around and go head on into the waves and run 30+ knts and see how it handles those same seas. then you will see how it performs. @@jeffs6819

when they turn arround and go into the waves then and only then will you see how the boat really performs. riding with the seas is not a real test. and the freemans have shown they are the superior class above all others. and they showed the boat going head on into 6 to 8ft seas running 30knts. so maybe get another day just like this and instead of following the waves and having an easy ride go into them and push the boat to show how it really performs.

@@striperjunkie so on this day we had more like 14ft waves and 30kts of consistent breeze which made it impossible for my drone to maintain any more than about 5mph into the wind so I just couldn't film it for you guys. Thats why I opened the video explaining that I would be running downwind. I haven't tested a Freeman so I can't say if they are better or worse but if I get an opportunity to film it you'll be sure to see it on the channel.

Great video, so good to see a boat running in seriously rough conditions. It looked like one of the hulls would dig in slightly in quartering seas and the boat would try to yaw -- did that happen? Does the boat ever feel squirrely running down seas like those you were in? Did the Molokai show any "sneezing" when running into head seas? Looked like a lot of fun out there.
@BoatLife_DansBoatLife
@BoatLife_DansBoatLife 10 ай бұрын
Great questions 👏… yes slight dig in on a couple of the very steep ones. I showed it with the drone. The motion was very predictable so I was fine at the helm and didn’t need to brace myself. Apart from that she felt rock solid running down swells. I would have no hesitation taking her out in bigger seas like we get back home. No sneezing whatsoever… I was paying attention to this because the smaller 28 Molokai does sneeze a little in big swell. It didn’t happen once on this hull and I ran it pretty hard after the cameras turned off. I’ve filmed that too but didn’t want to show it in this video as I might encourage people to do dumb shit and I don’t want to be blamed. In a weird way I would put this boat up against the Valhalla 41 that I’ve also tested. I understand they are very different but it can be compared in my opinion.

Australian east coast weather 70% of the time is what you were in , and when majority of us fishermen are in 6mtr boats 60-80 mile out this is normal. See it dropping a shoulder a couple of times when quartering, definitely would of liked to see a bit more of it's capability. And the other 30% is mostly worse with short windows of beautiful weather.

You won't turn around not because the drone can't keep up but because the seas will kick the crap out of that 50ft+ boat....and that's not the visual Aquilla wants to leave in everyone's minds! lol Edit to ask a question, What if on a crossing to the Bahamas the seas kick up halfway across and you have to run the head sea? (BTW every crossing is a head sea). It's happened to me many times. Answer, You put your head down and muscle thru hoping you bought a strong boat!. Aquilla is brave enough to let you put the boat out there in nasty conditions to appease most people. That'll be good enough for fair weather boaters, but we seasoned boats know.

Well considering I don't get paid for these videos I can show whatever I like lol... But I did actually cut to some upwind footage but my drone was stationary as it couldn't fly into the wind. I disagree this bat would be fine running into some rough stuff... on this day it was very steep so you would obviously slow right down when the waves are higher than the boat. I was actually wondering if those windows would have an issue in the big stuff with the boat potentially flexing and I was wrong, it was totally fine. This really is a very good hull.

That's correct, i think I actually explained that in the beginning of the video because the waves were peaking at 4m and breaking and we had steady 30kts meaning I could only fly my drone downwind. I did go into it but the drone was virtually stalled trying to fly into the wind and I was getting airbone in the cabin when trying to fly the drone so it wasn't realistic. When I get another opportunity in more normal conditions i'll film that and show you guys.

Lol... So I guess the point I was trying to make was to the average boat buyer. I spent 20yrs selling boats prior to this and most guys havn't got a lot of offshore time so my message was to take is slowly and work yourself into going out in conditions like this. I find when a skippers skill set reaches a point that he/she can focus on situational awareness instead of looking at the controls they start to become better and safer drivers and their decision making process becomes a lot better too. In terms of judging my confidence I guess the video can do the talking. I come at this channel with 30yrs power boating and 25yrs sailing experience. 20yrs of that I averaged 6 days a week on the water and have done a lot of rough weather boating... also in conditions a lot worse than this. I have noticed as I travel the world that a lot of places have very mild conditions compared to Australia and NZ so I try to speak to everyone and put it in context as best as I can. I hope the fishing is going good in NZ.
