Mackensea | 2024 Nautitech 44 Open

About

Designed by Marc Lombard and celebrated for its balance of speed, comfort, and seaworthiness, the Nautitech 44 Open has become a favourite among sailors who want to go far — and enjoy the journey. Mackensea takes that foundation and elevates it.

Single owner - Never Chartered - As New Condition

This Owner’s Version blends the signature inside/outside Open concept with a beautifully executed light‑wood interior and the rare SmartRoom® utility space. Every upgrade was chosen with long‑range independence in mind: a powerful lithium bank, nearly two kilowatts of solar, a high‑output watermaker, upgraded 50 hp engines, and a full suite of sails for every point of wind.

Life aboard is effortless. The cockpit and saloon merge into a single social space. The owner’s suite is bright, quiet, and beautifully finished. Refrigeration is abundant, connectivity is global, and the systems are modern, efficient, and easy to manage.

Mackensea isn’t just equipped for bluewater cruising - she’s designed for it.
