Verdict
The Nautitech 40 Open is a practical performance-cruising catamaran with a strong open-plan layout, good sailing balance, and proven family/charter livability. It is not the largest or most lavish 40-footer, but it offers a credible mix of speed potential, usable space, and manageable systems.
Avantages
- +Open saloon-to-cockpit layout improves social space
- +Shallow draft suits coastal and island cruising
- +Light, performance-oriented catamaran hull form
- +Twin engines aid docking and low-speed control
Inconvénients
- −Cabin layout varies by version, so onboard space is not uniform
- −Engine output is modest compared with some later rivals
- −Fuel capacity is adequate rather than generous for longer motoring
- −Not the quietest or most luxurious option in its class
The Nautitech 40 Open is a 39ft 4in catamaran designed around an airy, open living concept rather than a closed-off cruiser layout. Its beam and low-displacement hull give it a purposeful stance, and the model is widely associated with Marc Lombard’s performance-minded approach. The 3- or 4-cabin configurations reflect its dual role as both owner’s boat and charter platform.
Under sail, the boat is generally regarded as quicker and more engaging than many heavier cruising cats of similar length, with a balance that favors responsiveness and efficient passage-making. The twin 30hp diesel setup is enough for close-quarters maneuvering and routine motoring, but it is not a high-power package, so expectations should stay realistic in strong head seas or extended engine-only use.
Inside, the open saloon and direct cockpit connection are the main strengths, creating a sociable and practical space for guests. The confirmed 4-cabin, 2-bathroom layout suits charter use and short-handed cruising, while the 8-berth confirmed arrangement is more realistic than the higher guest capacity sometimes advertised. Air conditioning and Wi‑Fi add comfort, but this remains a functional cruising cat rather than a luxury flagship.
Overall value is solid if the buyer wants a well-known, efficient 40-foot catamaran with decent sailing manners and flexible accommodation. The model’s main appeal is its balance of performance, liveability, and simplicity, though buyers should check the exact layout and inventory carefully because specifications vary between versions.
