A compact cruising catamaran with sensible proportions, a practical layout, and good all-round versatility. It is not the fastest 40-footer in its class, but it offers a balanced mix of livability, manageable handling, and credible passagemaking ability.

The Nautitech 40 is a 39-foot cruising catamaran built around a practical balance of performance and comfort. Publicly available specifications for the Open version show an overall length of about 11.98 m, a beam of about 6.9 m, moderate draft, and a sail plan sized for easy cruising rather than maximum sport performance. It is a well-proportioned design for sailors who want a manageable multihull without moving into much larger, costlier territory.
On the water, the boat is generally regarded as steady and responsive for a cruising catamaran, with the twin-engine setup and twin wheels making it straightforward to dock and maneuver. The sail area and displacement indicate adequate, not extreme, performance, so it should be comfortable on passages and lively enough in normal cruising conditions, but it is not aimed at racing-level pace. Handling is helped by the catamaran format, though crew still need to think carefully about weight placement and sail handling in stronger wind.
Comfort is a strong point, especially in charter-friendly layouts. The model is offered with 3 or 4 cabins, and the 39-foot platform can support up to 8 guests in practical use, making it suitable for family cruising or small-group charters. The trade-off is that this size range does not offer the sprawling interior volume of larger cats, so stowage and liveaboard space are good rather than exceptional.
Value is solid if the buyer wants a versatile, reputable cruising catamaran with a balanced package rather than the most luxurious or fastest option. Its appeal is strongest for owners who prioritize a sensible layout, easy handling, and usable performance over headline speed or maximum onboard volume.
