History

On 2 October 2006, the British National Union of Marine, Aviation and Shipping Transport Officers and the Dutch Federation of Maritime Workers formed the Nautilus Federation. The two unions changed their names to Nautilus UK, and Nautilus NL, respectively, and worked closely together on an industrial and political level.

In 2008, members of Nautilus UK and Nautilus NL voted overwhelmingly in favour of proposals to create a new single trans-boundary union for maritime professionals. Nautilus International was born on 15 May 2009. In 2011, Swiss maritime professionals and boatmen, formerly represented by Swiss union Unia, voted to join Nautilus International. In 2015, FNV Waterbouw also became part of the union.
