ALUBAT CHANTIER NAVAL

Alubat shipyard has been building and marketing aluminum sailboats, dedicated to lblue-water cruisers, since 1973.
Based in Les Sables d’Olonne with a team of 47 experienced and passionated collaborators, the shipyard now has more than 1,600 units, most of which sail around the world.

Luc JURIEN, General Director of the shipyard, puts all his knowledge, skills in boating and his experience of sailing around the world, especially on board the OVNI 56 “Bulle” with which he practiced 8 years of expedition charter, to continue developing the range.

The range of OVNI sailboats, 100% aluminum lifting keel, designed by the Mortain/Mavrikios and CBA design office, is:
OVNI 370 with a panoramic deckhouse and raised saloon
OVNI 430 with a panoramic deckhouse and available in classic or raised saloon version
OVNI 450 with a classic design by Marc Lombard and a classic deckhouse
OVNI 490 designed with a wheelhouse and a raised saloon

This range is completed by the Cigale sailboats with the Cigale 15 QR, with swingning keel and 100% aluminum, dedicated to fast cruising.
This new model was developed by the Finot-Conq design office which designed the first Cigale.

A range of long-distance aluminum sailing catamarans has also been designed, with the OVNICAT 48 as the first model.

=> The choice of full aluminium: Sturdy, sustainable and recyclable

With a density and mechanical properties of both rigidity and shock absorption, aluminium is undoubtedly the ideal material for building yachts that are both light and safe.

In addition to the flexibility it provides in terms of building processes, aluminium is certainly the most suitable material for making bespoke yachts.

The quality of hull construction, the durability of our woodwork and the care taken of the electrical installations combined with the seagoing qualities of our yachts, guarantee the value of the yacht you have bought. Should you wish to buy a larger or more recent model your Ovni or Cigale will quickly find a buyer, at a good price.

Finally, when, after many years of use, an ALUBAT sets off on its last journey, the main materials used, aluminium for hull and deck as well as lead and / or cast iron for ballast, being perfectly recyclable materials, this boat will participate in sustainable development by re-emerging in other forms.
