Boat on parade

The French shipyard Alubat, based in Les Sables d’Olonne, will exhibit its new model, the OVNI 400, during boot Düsseldorf.

13 December 2019

Designed by the Mortain-Mavrikios design office, the OVNI 400 already impresses with her hull shape with a max beam of 4.35 metres and her inverted and rounded bow. She promises a very spacious living area while always keeping her seaworthiness spirit, with her forward sails locker for example.

This new conception is also remarkable for her specific exterior line highlighted by a panoramic roof offering a unique vision and a lot of light inside. This nice visibility allows to carry out your watches safely.

Proposed in different layouts and various wood species, the sailboat exhibited at the show is in ash wood with 2 double cabins, a head and a separated shower. Whatever the version you choose, the OVNI 400 has a very fluent circulation inside as well as outside.

An easy access is offered by a large transom, topped by an aluminium arch for an efficient tender storage. The twin steering station and the mainsail arch keep the cockpit free and friendly.

The interior reveals a very well thought out arrangement with the offset chart table and saloon on port side and the galley on starboard. When you are seated in the saloon, you keep the visibility through the hull hatches.

Blue water cruising oriented, the OVNI 400 ensures performance thanks to her great waterline length, her high aspect-ratio rig, a moderate headsails area, easy handling and her 1 300 kilogram ballasted lifting keel.
