Overview:

Tonga Time was commissioned from the factory and built to the current owner's custom design preferences.  She features the "Premium Finish Package" and is upgraded with bespoke matte Olive Wood cabinetry throughout.  Most notably, Tonga Time was built without the lower aft exterior dining table.  Instead, she features huge lazarettes in the aft cockpit that are suitable for water toys, fishing gear, spare jerry cans, etc.  This shorter stern allows for a more conventional electric dinghy davit system which is much easier to operate than the standard crane.  This redesign is also significantly lighter weight and results in the dinghy no longer jutting out past the stern of the boat.

Tonga Time also incorporates a custom hard top above the flybridge.  Designed by Atlantic Towers, it provides a location for the large solar array and better weather protection than the factory hard top.

Both the stern and hard top modifications result in a dramatically lighter boat than the standard factory specs. The total weight savings allows Tonga Time to sit approximately 5in higher on her waterline.  In combination with her upgraded Yanmar 370hp engines, she cruises considerably faster and more efficiently than a standard Aquila 44.

Accommodations:

Tonga Time has a 2-cabin layout featuring a full-beam master cabin and workshop / office / work out room.  The master includes ample storage and hanging lockers, a full size desk and hanging lockers, and a built in TV mounting area.  The master head is spacious and bright with a large walk-in shower.  A king bed with upgraded mattress ensures that you'll always have a restful nights sleep.  The guest berth to port features a queen bed with en suite head that includes a dedicated vanity, porcelain sink, electric toilet, and large separate shower stall.  The starboard workshop is designed for ample tools storage or can be used as a dedicated office space with a fold down desk.  The attached laundry room features full sized washer and vented dryer, a sink, and easy access to the Spectra watermaker which was repositioned from its standard location in the engine compartment for ease of maintenance.  In the common areas, the open concept design offers a fantastic flow between exterior cockpit into the galley and salon.  The space features a large folding glass door and a swing up window opening up to a fold down bar and fixed bar stools making a wonderful entertaining area.  This open concept design combines with numerous overhead, side, and forward opening hatches to offer fantastic ventilation throughout the boat.
