SEA.AI and Nautitech Partnership for Safer Sailing

SEA.AI and renowned French shipyard Nautitech Catamarans are strengthening their collaboration by offering SEA.AI’s machine vision systems as an option to Nautitech clients across their range of high-performance catamarans. This partnership reflects a shared commitment to delivering innovation, safety, and an exceptional sailing experience.

SEA.AI and Nautitech Partnership: Advancing Innovation at Sea

For Nautitech, crafting catamarans is about more than shipbuilding—it’s about creating the perfect balance between freedom, performance, and comfort

Each design choice is guided by the belief that navigation and performance must remain at the core of a multihull’s DNA. 

While the market often emphasizes the experience at anchor, Nautitech stands out by ensuring its catamarans excel both when stationary and when venturing into open waters. 

 

“Innovation and safety are essential to delivering the sailing sensations our owners expect. Our vision focuses on robust construction, excellent performance, and high-end comfort—all while prioritizing ease of use and safety in all wind conditions. Integrating SEA.AI’s smart lookout aligns perfectly with this philosophy, ensuring that our catamarans not only perform exceptionally well but also offer peace of mind for sailors, whether cruising or pushing boundaries offshore.”

Sail with confidence thanks to SEA.AI technology

SEA.AI’s technology acts as an additional, tireless crew member dedicated to safety, providing round-the-clock situational awareness. Its machine vision system continuously detects and alerts the presence of floating objects and potential hazards in real time—day or night, in any conditions.

From unlit buoys, floating containers, and fishing gear to small craft without AIS signals, SEA.AI spots what traditional systems like radar or AIS may overlookand what the human eye can miss in low visibility or at night.

It allows captains and crew to stay focused on navigation and performance, knowing they have reliable support enhancing safety at every moment.

Beyond collision avoidance, the system is particularly valuable when arriving in unfamiliar areas after dark, helping sailors safely maneuver around moored boats or locate space to dock in busy harbors.

“Nautitech catamarans are built for sailors who demand more—from their boat and their time on the water. Our collaboration is driven by a shared desire to enable that bold, dynamic approach while embedding the highest standards of safety and innovation. SEA.AI systems integrate seamlessly into the Nautitech fleet and their onboard electronics, acting as an extra set of eyes and a trusted co-skipper. Together, we offer sailors the tools they need to sail further, faster, and with confidence.”
