The Advanced 44 is a modern Italian cruiser designed by Biscontini Yacht Design/Nauta Yachts and built by Advanced Yachts (ITA) starting in 2014.

- Best for:
- This boat suits coastal and offshore cruisers who prioritize modern fractional sloop rigging and a comfortable interior layout, as indicated by its Comfort ratio of 17.07. It is well-suited for couples or small families seeking a stable, well-equipped vessel for extended passages.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a Capsize ratio of 2.23 and a D/L ratio of 96.58, the Advanced 44 demonstrates strong stability and moderate displacement suitable for bluewater cruising. Its fin keel and fractional sloop rig provide the performance and handling characteristics expected of a modern offshore cruiser.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the Nauticat 44 and other Italian-built performance cruisers from the mid-2010s that share similar fractional rig configurations and beam-to-length ratios. These vessels offer similar balances of interior volume and sailing performance for the same target market.
