Introducing S/V Kanthaka, a unique, fully insulated 1998 Alubat Ovni 43. These vessels were designed by Philippe Briand and built by Alubat, based in Les Sables d’Olonne, France. Known for their pioneering use of aluminum, Alubat is celebrated for producing approximately 50 high-quality cruising yachts annually, each crafted entirely from aluminum. This ensures durability and versatility, as demonstrated by the Ovni 43’s lifting keel and rudder, allowing it to navigate shallow waters and be easily beached. Many of these robust blue-water cruisers continue to sail the world’s oceans today.
S/V Kanthaka underwent a comprehensive refit in 2024 in Barcelona preparing her for a circumnavigation. After crossing the Atlantic this past winter, she arrived in Rio Dulce, Guatemala. She is presently on the hard awaiting a new owner and is covered with a full protective storage tarp.
On the interior the Alubat Ovni 43 has utilized every bit of space, giving her full length at the waterline. The interior has stunning woodwork throughout and beautiful teak and holly floors. She is a three-cabin version with the master cabin having a double and a single berth, followed by a head in the forward V-berth and storage locker under the anchor area. There are twin cabins aft, the port side with a wide double and the starboard side with a double and a single above. There are two heads. The galley retains the famous “L” design original to the Ovni 43. The galley, saloon, and forward cabins have large opening hatches for plenty of ventilation, and there are fans in the saloon and cabins with LED lighting throughout.
S/V Kanthaka is powered by a reliable diesel engine that has been meticulously maintained. During the 2024 refit, mechanics advised against replacing it due to its exceptional performance and longevity, opting instead for a full mechanical revision.
The vessel received modern electrical and navigation updates, with new mast navigation and floodlights and updated 2024 navigation equipment. A satellite connectivity system has also been integrated, providing reliable connectivity in remote locations.
This vessel is equipped for extended offshore passages.
S/V Kanthaka comes with spare parts, tools, and safety equipment, and the deck paint was redone in 2020 and still looks nearly new.
S/V Kanthaka represents a rare opportunity to own a fully equipped blue-water cruiser, perfect for live-aboard lifestyles. She is ready to embark on new adventures. Whether you dream of crossing oceans or exploring secluded bays, this versatile and robust vessel is ready to make those dreams a reality!
