2026 Nautitech 48 open

The Nautitech 48 Open will bring the modular aspect of the N44 into a whole new meaning making the saloon much more versatile with a full-sized dining table with telescope/retractable poles that will be able to convert to a full-sized bed in the saloon for the night with an extra guest or for longer night passages.

The Smart Room takes on a new shape, with 4 distinctly different versions for a modular living onboard and convertible space that is more practicable in use than let's say a normal cabin space. The Nautitech 48 Open will offer more space, more stowage, larger and more countertop space and a true VIP guest Hull and cabin layout, with an exceptionally designed mid-ship bathroom with double sinks and a separate shower and toilette with plenty of light and ventilation. Making the Nautitech 48 Open a truly versatile and modular boat for families, couples with guests or for extensive cruising and live-aboard lifestyle. 

 

Key Highlights of the Nautitech 48 Open: Clear Nautitech DNA

• Light-weight; lowest weight in class
• Potent sailing capacity: best-in-class sail area/weight ratio
• Fast: narrow hulls on the waterline with inverted bows
• Safe: crash boxes in the bows, sacrificial keels, helm positions in the hulls
• Comfort: smooth ride in rough seas because of the centred weight distribution

For anyone coming from a monohull-sailing background like us, you will be pleased to hear that the reinvented helm position (the true DNA of Nautitech) has only been improved by the new bench and steering console adding to the marvelous idea and concept of the twin-aft steering positions. 

The advantages of this configuration are multiple:

• Easily dock manoeuvres with a perfect view of the hull side and the possibility of mooring the rear without moving from the helm.
• View of the water and sails whether windward or leeward.
• Optimum steering sensation thanks to a steering system using short-circuit steering cable.
• The maximum lowering of the boom, unlike the fly helm station or semi-fly, increases the effectiveness of the mainsail that comes flush with the roof and allows easy access to the mainsail for furling.
• Security and optimized communication with the crew.
• Having the cockpit and helms on the same level makes the boat more sociable under sail, and safer to move around."
