Marine Max 545-12-edit Aquila Power Catamarans

Aquila Power Catamarans has expanded into the Dominican Republic in partnership with nautical company Auto Marina.

“We are excited to introduce our exceptional vessels to the Dominican Republic with our great partner, Auto Marina,” says Raul Bermudez, Aquila sales director for the Caribbean, South America and Central America. “Our expansion represents a commitment to providing boaters in this beautiful destination with the best in luxury, performance and innovation. We look forward to contributing to the vibrant boating culture of the Dominican Republic and forging lasting relationships within the local community.”

The news comes months after Aquila expanded to the Philippines, with the appointment of Europa Yachts as its dealer.

The Dominican Republic is known for its pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and diverse marine life, which provides the ideal backdrop for cruising.

Auto Marina is an established name in Dominican Republic yacht sales and servicing. The firm covers all segments of the marine market, including boat sales, inboard or outboard motors, parts and maintenance.

Auto Marina has three dealership locations throughout the country in Santo Domingo, Boca Chica and Marina Chavón, plus a shipyard with boat racks to house 200 boats.

“Auto Marina has been a family business for the last 46 years, and every family member has contributed to our growth in making us the largest nautical company in the Dominican Republic,” says Guillermo Augusto Gonzalez Baez, sales and service manager at Auto Marina. “With strong family values as one of our core values, we are happy to partner with the Aquila Power Catamarans brand not only because of the great boats they produce, but also because they have continued to show their commitment to sticking with the values they started on.

“We can’t wait to see how much our customers will enjoy these vessels.”
