The latest and largest model in Nautitech’s line up, which hit the water for initial sea trials in late 2023, is the last design legendary naval architect Marc Lombard worked on before his premature death in September.
It’s also a boat with which he had a special connection, since his own yacht was a Nautitech 40 Open that he sailed across the Atlantic with his family, before basing it in Martinique.
Many of his ideas to updatedesign are embodied in the 48 Open. Indeed Lombard was a key driver behind Nautitech’s whole Open idea, starting with the original Nautitech 40 Open in 2013 that has since been widely imitated.
