New production capacities
In recent years, market developments have led Allures Yachting focus its production capacity on boats measuring 45 feet and above. This move was part of a shared growth strategy with Garcia Yachts, with both brands drawing on shared infrastructure.
The Grand Large Yachting group Grand Large Yachting since strengthened its industrial capabilities with the integration of a new metalworking facility in Caen, following the takeover of Normandie Yachts Service, as well as the construction of a new assembly building in Cherbourg-en-Cotentin. These investments now enable the Allures 40.9 to be relaunched under optimal conditions.
A 40-foot aluminum sailboat that is still highly sought after
From the moment it was launched, the Allures 40.9 established itself as the benchmark in the 12- meters bluewater cruising -class sailboat segment. To date, 46 units are sailing on oceans around the world. It naturally incorporates the shipyard’s core design principles: a shaped aluminum hull, centerboarder, and a composite deck.
Designed for couples, but also appreciated by solo sailors, the Allures 40.9 offers a particularly successful compromise between interior volume and ease of handling.
A layout designed for life on board, at sea or at anchor
The classic interior layout—featuring a U-shaped galley and a face-to- chart table at the foot of the companionway, along with a large, full-width central salon—ensures excellent freedom of movement both at sea and at anchor. Between the large overhead portholes in the roof and the five hull portholes on each side, the Allures 40.9 is bathed in light and offers a wide view of the outdoors. The boat comes standard with a forward cabin, a aft cabin , and a Workshop storage system, which is essential for bluewater cruising.
