The Nautitech Open 40 has earned a reputation as one of the standout modern cruising catamarans, combining genuine sailing performance with the comfort and practicality needed for serious time aboard. This 2019 example is a beautifully presented owner's version, imported into Australia with all duties paid, and is currently located in North Queensland.
Purpose built for sailors wanting the freedom to cruise extensively without sacrificing comfort, she offers the versatility to suit everything from coastal exploration and island hopping through the Pacific to longer offshore passages further abroad.
Her owner's layout has been thoughtfully designed to maximise liveability onboard. The port hull is dedicated to a spacious private owner's suite complete with a generous bathroom and dedicated workspace, creating a comfortable retreat for extended stays aboard. The starboard hull features two well appointed guest cabins and a shared bathroom, providing excellent separation and privacy for family or visiting guests.
Equipped for independent cruising, she carries an impressive inventory that supports comfortable life afloat and confident passagemaking, including radar, forward sonar, AIS transmit and receive, Starlink connectivity, comprehensive safety equipment, substantial refrigeration and freezer capacity, solar charging, inverter systems, and portable air conditioning.
The signature open concept cockpit and saloon create an exceptional social space, offering seamless flow throughout the living areas. Full cockpit enclosures provide protection when needed, while opening easily to take full advantage of tropical anchorages and warm sailing conditions.
Offering the performance Nautitech is renowned for, paired with practical cruising systems and contemporary comfort, this Open 40 is exceptionally well suited to buyers seeking a proven platform for their next adventure.
