Nautitech catamarans attract sailors who still care about how a boat moves through the water, but who also want the comfort of a modern multihull. They sit somewhere between the very roomy, charter-focused designs and the more performance-oriented cats. In Croatian waters that balance works nicely: you get a responsive helm and decent sailing speeds, without sacrificing comfort at anchor.
On this page I will walk you through how Nautitech catamarans feel under sail, which models you will usually find in Croatian charter fleets, and how to choose the right Nautitech for your crew. From here you can jump directly to Search by Brand or compare Nautitech with other builders in the main Yacht Brands overview.
Nautitech catamarans are designed for real sailors who also appreciate comfort. Twin helms, sensible deck layouts and well-proportioned sail plans mean the boat still feels like a sailboat, not just a floating apartment. In Croatia this is a pleasure: you can trim the sails properly on passages between Split, Hvar, Vis and the Kornati National Park, while still enjoying a bright saloon and a protected cockpit when you stop for the night.
For crews who like to sail properly but do not want the heeling angle of a monohull, Nautitech is often a very good match. The handling feels more involved than on some larger, heavier cats, yet the interior is still comfortable enough for a mixed group of friends or family.
Nautitech designs are all about keeping weight reasonable, maintaining a low profile and keeping the centre of effort where it should be. You can feel this when steering: the boat accelerates quickly in the afternoon thermals described in our guides Adriatic Sea and Weather and Weather by Month.
Many Nautitech models use a single shared cockpit and saloon level, often with sliding doors and thoughtful shading. You are not as high above the water as on some larger cats, which helps you feel more connected to what the boat is doing. Cabins are straightforward and practical, with enough storage for a one or two week charter without feeling cluttered.
Model availability changes a little each season, but in our partner fleets you will often see:
If you want to compare Nautitech with slightly roomier cruising cats, take a look at Lagoon Catamarans and Fountaine Pajot as well. Different brands offer a different balance between volume and sailing feel, and it is worth matching that to your crew.
Nautitech catamarans are not as numerous as some other brands, but they are spread across all major Croatian regions. You will normally find them around Split and Trogir, with additional boats based in Zadar, Sibenik and occasionally Dubrovnik.
When you send an enquiry we always check the freshest fleet lists and availability directly in our booking systems. The goal is to match you with the base that fits your route ideas from our Itinerary Library and Itineraries pages.
From my experience, Nautitech catamarans are especially good for:
If your crew is more focused on maximum space and a big flybridge, Lagoon or Fountaine Pajot might be a better match. If they like sailing and are happy with a slightly leaner interior, Nautitech is often ideal.
You can charter Nautitech catamarans in both bareboat and skippered formats:

Prices for Nautitech catamarans depend on size, year of build and season. Smaller Nautitech 40 Open boats in May or October can be surprisingly accessible, while summer weeks on a nearly new 46 Fly will be priced closer to the premium end of the market.
To understand the full budget picture, combine this page with our guides Charter Prices, Yacht Charter Cost Croatia and Full Cost Guide. They explain how base price, skipper, fuel, marinas and extras fit together so there are no surprises.
Because Nautitech boats sail nicely, they are perfect for routes with a bit more time actually under sail. Some examples:

When you are ready to move from ideas to concrete offers, the process is simple:
I will then check real-time availability in our professional booking systems, compare Nautitech options with a few similar cats, and send you a short, honest list of offers. The goal is always the same: a Nautitech that sails the way you like, fits your budget and is based in the right part of the Croatian coast for your route.
If you are still comparing brands, you can always go back to Yacht Brands and read through Lagoon, Bali, Fountaine Pajot and others, then come back here once Nautitech feels like your style of catamaran.
