Onboard catamaran BY MY SIDE in Split - one of my favorite catamaran layouts. Why? The bar between the main saloon and the back deck + the master cabin on the bow - with a view over the sea.
But what is a big sell for BY MY SIDE is the extra effort put into making her look fantastic - the design skills of the stewardess are incredibly unique and worthy of a superyacht. Her aim is to deliver maximum value!
15 knots cruising speed - puts BY MY SIDE in the fastest category for cats her size. She also has a big tender!
I love her!
By My Side Yacht Description
New-build Aquila 54. BY MY SIDE is a 2024 Aquila 54 power catamaran, set up to sleep 8 guests in 4 en-suite cabins. The big win here is catamaran volume without the “camping at sea” vibe.
Easy social flow. The aft cockpit connects directly to the main salon, with doors and a bar hatch that open up so lunch, drinks, and conversation stay in one orbit. Bar stools at the hatch. Simple, and it works.
Flybridge and foredeck. An enclosed flybridge gives you another proper hangout zone, plus there’s a deck grill and walkaround access to the bow. Sun pads forward with adjustable headrests.
Toys with horsepower. You get a Zar 85 SL tender with a 350 HP outboard for fast transfers, plus a Seabob F9, Flite Seascooter, SUP, a Nautibuoy floating dock (4 m x 2 m), a 4-person towable, and snorkel gear for low-effort water time.
Comfort basics covered. Air conditioning, Wi-Fi, satellite TV, and a TV in the saloon (and master cabin) keep everyone happy when you want a quieter hour onboard.
