Investing in the Future of Aluminum Sailboats
From a complete redesign of the OVNI range to the launch of an ultralight aluminum performance sailboat, and upgrading the shipyard facilities, Alubat is making major investments in the next generation of cruising sailboats.

Cigale 15QR: Ultralight Aluminum Sailboat
Alubat’s new ultralight aluminum performance sailboat is a design that combines the strength and durability of aluminum with the speed and responsiveness of an ultralight displacement hull.

New Standard 48V Power
Alubat is leading the charge by integrating 48V technology across their range—from the Ovni 370 to the 490.

Go Places, Do Things Others Can’t
The advantages of an Alubat 100 percent aluminum sailboat are many – strength, durability, agility – but perhaps one that is often overlooked is the confidence it builds in the sailor.

We’re in Love
In an age where compromise takes precedence over integrity and where few truly independent boatyards still exist, Alubat stands apart from the ever growing trend of corporate consolidation.



50 years of sailing excellence!
FIGARO nautisme | by François Tregouet
Half a century old and still thriving, Alubat, the Vendée-based shipyard, is not content with just being one of the world’s benchmarks in ocean cruising with its iconic Ovni yachts. Instead, with the enthusiasm of youth, it is preparing to launch three new monohulls over the next two years.

THE HOME OF ALUBAT
Design & outstanding craftsmanship are a given, but what makes Alubat the single best aluminum expedition sailboat today has much to do with where it is built.

Centerboard ADVANTAGES
navigate shallow water
From the turquoise waters of the Bahamas to the Alaskan ice fields, a lifting centerboard gives you the peace of mind to navigate in shallow water.
The centerboard doesn’t sacrifice performance or safety in heavy weather sailing. In fact, it can enhance performance when it comes to downwind sailing.
Another advantage of a centerboard is the expanded possibilities to find docking in marinas that would otherwise be too shallow for a fixed keel sailboat.
docking
Without the limitations of fixed keel boats, your cruising opportunities can take you through the maze of Europe’s ancient canals and the historic North American waterways.
The centerboard is lifted manually using existing winches.
