A NEW GENERATION OF ALUMINUM SAILBOATS
The aluminum hull aboard the new Ovni 430 has an inverted and voluminous bow. This gives the salboat a longer waterline. The hull is built using semi-thick aluminum resulting in a lighter overall structure.
There is also an increase in volume in the front two thirds of the hull, creating extra space in the forward lockers. This results in a larger sail locker and a deeper anchor locker.
Another change from the previous sailboat model is the addition of another chine in the structure. This chine, combined with other changes to the hull, means that the centerboard lifts all the way inside for better hydrodynamics while sailing as well as a better position when beached.
ovni 430 RAISED DECK SALON: MODERN INTERIOR SAILBOAT LAYOUT
The benefits of the aluminum hull design are further enhanced with a new deck. For example, the coach roof on the Ovni 430 is slightly widened and the coach roof angles are modified resulting in a raised deck salon interior layout.
The salon features panoramic views for active watchkeeping while underway or at a mooring. The large windows provide plenty of light and ventilation. The offset salon on the port side opens the interior area connecting the galley with the dining area. Of course, the forward facing navigation station is ideal in all weather conditions and is the central area for all the boat’s systems.
A large owner cabin is located forward and highlights the new, modern layout and design. There is a spacious head with a separate shower aft just forward of the technical room on the starboard side. A large guest cabin is located on the port side.
