II · Propulsion

Powered by twin MTU 10V 2000 M93 diesel engines.

Each engine is rated at 1,523 hp and coupled to a Top System surface-drive unit, for 3,046 hp total. Power is transmitted through surface-piercing propellers. AKULA's listing specifies a 42-knot cruise and 47-knot maximum.

III · Performance

Faster, without compromising efficiency.

AKULA is the fastest boat in its cross-shop class — and runs in the low-40-knot range with fuel-per-mile that holds the line with several materially slower peers.

Efficient at Speed

In published testing of the MTU M93 Pershing 62 package, the boat held a 41-knot cruise at roughly 131 gph — about 3.2 gallons per nautical mile. The same fuel-per-mile band as slower 60–65 ft alternatives, while covering materially more water per hour.

280nm

Listed Range

Fast doesn't mean short-legged. AKULA carries the cruising range of slower 60-foot alternatives — same practical day-runs, materially higher speed.

Comparison figures are drawn from AKULA project records and selected manufacturer/listing specifications compiled in May 2026. Actual performance varies with load, condition, sea state, and setup.

IV · The Successor

Pershing 6X performance,
at a fraction of the price.

The Pershing 6X is the current-generation successor to the 62 — same surface-drive architecture, nearly identical length and beam, twin engines in the 1,500 hp class, and a near-identical speed envelope. AKULA delivers that proposition for roughly half.
