Ready to sail:
TAO II has been our home for the last eight years. We sailed her from Mediterranean sea to Australia. She has proven easy to handle with two people onboard and very reliable. We have equipped her to have the autonomy to go in remote locations and reduce the number of things to worry about. Her comfort has been great both on long passages and when receiving friends.
This is the high-end « Exclusive » finish with full options and an owner’s cabin that takes the entire starboard hull. She has been maintained with love to keep her looking good and provide the safety we need. Has never been chartered!
Fully equipped and ready to go – just bring your bags and sail away…
Why we own a Nautitech 442?
- Balance between performance and comfort
- Two helm stations, each with engine commands, give better visibility, ease of manoeuvring and sailing sensations
- Spacious and safe cockpit separated from the sailing deck
- Deck is clear with wide side passages for safety and ease of movement
- Easy access to the boom that is low over the roof
- Open transom sterns make it easy to step in and out of the tender
- Weatherproof cockpit with roof and bimini in one piece and complete clear enclosure
- Wide forward view from the chart table
- Designed and built for outstanding seaworthiness and not just for charter and lagoon navigation
- Her lines are fluid and she looks nice… we think 😉

(*) if the sale transaction takes place in Australia the boat will have to first be imported (we are currently getting an estimate for the importation cost) – otherwise we are planning to sail to New Caledonia at the end of the 2024 cyclone season and the sale transaction could take place over there at that time.
