The Nautitech 48 Open wins the EYOTY 2025 prize in the Multihull category!

We are extremely proud to announce that our catamaran Nautitech 48 Open has won the prestigious EYOTY 2025 award in the Multihull category!

2 years after the 44 Open, Nautitech confirms its success with the 48 Open.

 

In Yachting World, Toby Hodges, the only British representative among the twelve European jurors, reveals his assessment of the boats after taking part in the trials of the twelve yachts in competition. Space, speed and style. My first impressions were very positive: is this the most beautiful production catamaran today? We presented a full test of this 48 Open in the February issue and filmed this sailing tour, but I'm still finding it hard to condense my impressions into a few words. The Nautitech 48 Open makes me dream of far-flung voyages and long periods of sailing! It's one of the few production boats that makes you want to stay at the helm and make headway in the lightest of airs.’


 For Yacht.de by Jochen Rieker, ‘[...] the Nautitech is one of the fastest of the nominees. While other multihull brands offer even more volume and comfort, it doesn't disappoint when it comes to long-distance cruising ability either. Here, then, is the near-perfect balance between fun performance and an amount of comfort that may even excite monohull fans.’

Nautitech 48 Open wins award

The Nautitech 48 Open won over the jury with a combination of exceptional qualities: a very well-balanced construction, good sailing and manoeuvring characteristics, high-speed potential, a variable-use saloon and above-average structural strength.

 

This award recognises the work of our teams and our ongoing commitment to designing high-performance, innovative and comfortable catamarans. We invite all sailing enthusiasts to come and discover the Nautitech 48 Open and share in our pride!

A few words from the Jury

‘There are cruising catamarans and performance catamarans. And then there's the Nautitech 48 Open, which combines the best of both worlds,’ explains Marinus van Sijdenborgh de Jong, head of testing at Dutch magazine Linien. Pasi Nuutinen from Vene in Finland sums up the boat in two words: ‘a pleasure!’


‘Do you want a lot of space or do you want to sail fast? The Nautitech 48 Open is an excellent compromise between the two’, Axel Nissen-Lie, NOR


‘Extraordinary sailing performance, a neat interior and an innovative hull design that makes this catamaran remarkably easy to tack - these are just some of the features of this real winner’, Morten Brandt-Rasmussen, DEN.
