The Nautitech 40, originally designed by the naval architecture firm Mortain & Mavrikios, represents a foundational chapter in the history of the French shipyard. Launched in the early 2000s, this 12-meter catamaran established the brand's core identity: a focus on "sailor-first" ergonomics and slender hull forms that prioritize speed and sea-kindliness over the sheer internal volume favored by many of its contemporaries. Unlike the later "Open" series designed by Marc Lombard, the original Nautitech 40 and its successor, the 40.2, feature a more traditional coachroof profile while maintaining the brand's signature twin outboard helm stations. This model was instrumental in positioning Nautitech as a manufacturer that caters to cruisers who value the "feel" of a boat under sail, bridging the gap between performance multihulls and heavy-displacement cruising cats.
