The Ovni 395 is a highly respected bluewater cruiser designed by Philippe Briand and built by renowned French shipyard Alubat. Constructed entirely in marine-grade aluminium with a lifting keel design, the Ovni 395 combines offshore capability, strength, and versatility in one proven cruising package. New engine installed July 2026.
With a variable draft from just 0.6m to 2.1m, she offers access to shallow anchorages while maintaining excellent offshore performance. Her practical deck layout, secure cockpit, furling headsail, and all lines led aft make her ideal for short-handed cruising, while the Volvo D2-50 shaft-drive diesel provides dependable passagemaking performance.
Below deck, the warm oak interior features a spacious saloon, functional galley, dedicated navigation station, and comfortable accommodation suited to extended cruising or liveaboard use. Well regarded worldwide for their seaworthiness and go-anywhere capability, Ovni yachts remain highly sought after among serious offshore sailors.
