    2025 Nautitech 40 Open – Now Available in South Africa

    Performance | Elegance | Innovation

    The Nautitech brand, founded in 1994 in Rochefort-sur-Mer, France, has long been celebrated for its commitment to blending sailing performance with refined onboard comfort. With a design ethos shaped by renowned naval architect Marc Lombard, Nautitech catamarans are known for their open-plan living, dual helm stations, and exceptional build quality. Now under the stewardship of Bavaria Yachts, the yard continues to push boundaries in multihull innovation.

    We are thrilled to announce that the Nautitech range of Sail and Power Catamarans has at long last graced our South African shores and, for the first time, will be available locally through Boat Brokers (Pty) Ltd.

    Introducing the 2025 Nautitech 40 Open

    Available in both 3-cabin Owner’s and 4-cabin layouts, the 40 Open is a masterclass in modern catamaran design. The quoted base price is for the standard 3-cabin / 2-heads Owner’s version, with various configurations available to suit your cruising style.

    Design & Comfort

    From the dock, the 40 Open impresses with sleek, well-proportioned lines and a solid bimini that flows seamlessly from the saloon roof—creating a visually striking and functional silhouette. Step aboard and you’re greeted by an open-plan layout that feels more like a contemporary apartment with a patio than a traditional yacht. The ergonomics and use of space are exceptional, and the finish is truly world-class.

    The galley and saloon are compact yet cleverly arranged, and the aft deck can be fully enclosed with drop sheets—offering protection from the elements when needed. Below decks, the Owner’s version dedicates the entire port hull to a luxurious master suite, complete with a spacious head forward, a desk amidships, and a generous double berth aft with panoramic views. The starboard hull features two well-appointed double cabins with a shared “walk-past” head.

    Sailing Performance

    This catamaran is no slouch. The 2025 edition builds on the proven performance of its predecessors, with a self-tacking jib, a powerful fat-top mainsail, and the option to add a Code Zero on a soft luff furling unit—making her a joy to sail in a wide range of conditions. Dual helm stations offer flexibility and free up valuable space on the aft deck. And with remote autopilot control, long passages become effortless.

    In Summary

    The 2025 Nautitech 40 Open is a beautifully balanced catamaran that offers both exhilarating sailing and luxurious living. With her debut in South Africa, she presents a rare opportunity for discerning sailors to own a vessel that is as capable as it is captivating.

    This vessel will be a tough act to top.
