“My goal has always been to offer boats that I would be proud to own myself. De Antonio Yachts represents exactly that—a perfect blend of practicality and stunning design that is unlike anything else on the water.” — Steve Marris
SD Nautical is proud to be the home of De Antonio Yachts in Australia. Since 2012, this Barcelona-based shipyard has revolutionised the day-boat market with a unique concept: hidden outboard engines.
By concealing high-performance outboard engines underneath a sunpad or engine hatch, De Antonio Yachts offers the best of both worlds:
The reliability and ease of outboard engines.
The sleek lines and full-beam swim platforms typically reserved for inboard vessels.
The ability to venture into shallow bays and beach closer than ever before.
From the flagship D50 Coupé to the revolutionary, 100% electric E23 Catamaran, our range is designed for those who refuse to compromise on style or functionality.
As the official distributor, we are your direct link to the factory, ensuring priority access to new models, custom configurations, and the latest releases like the E23.
We understand the specific needs of West Australian boaters. We know how our boats handle the Fremantle Doctor and the best configurations for our coastal lifestyle.
We are championing the future of boating with the introduction of the E23, the first 100% electric serial production boat of its kind, promoting zero-emission navigation without sacrificing performance.
From the initial consultation and test drive to handover and after-sales support, Steve and the team are with you at every stage of your ownership journey.
We invite you to visit us in South Perth to discuss your boating needs. Whether you are upgrading, buying your first luxury vessel, or interested in electric boating technology, SD Nautical is here to guide you.
