Allures 45.9S – the lightweight lifting keel aluminium sailboat
OPTIMAL SAILBOAT FOR FAST BLUE WATER CRUISING
"Lighter thanks to a lifting keel and more canvas with the carbon mast, the Allures 45.9S is the fast version of a blue water cruising yacht."

ALUMINIUM SAILBOAT WITH A LIFTING KEEL AND CARBON MAST
With its slightly bulbous shape, the lifting keel on the Allures 45.9S carries its ballast with a lower centre of gravity, which gives this blue water cruising yacht a number of advantages. The boat is almost two tonnes lighter than the centreboard version. The carbon mast and rod rigging further lighten everything, making the boat even faster and just as enjoyable to sail. And the limited draft with the keel raised still allows access to some of the remotest anchorages!
THE ADVANTAGES OF THE ALLURES 45.9S : LIGHTER ALUMINIUM LIFTING KEEL SAILBOAT
ALUMINIUM HULL
Sailing in complete safety and total freedom: that’s the promise of an aluminium hull for blue water cruising yachts. Aluminium is an exceptional material: it’s strong (it can deform without splitting) and is light in weight and long-lasting. It defies the elements to offer you unlimited sailing on your liveaboard sailboat, including around the world.
COMPOSITE DECK
In addition to its elegance, lightness and robustness, the composite deck found aboard Allures aluminium sailing yachts, also insulates the cockpit from extremes of temperature. It ensures better weight distribution, providing optimum stability under way while offering excellent thermal comfort.
SEAKINDLY CHARACTER
A blue water sailing boat with a lifting keel for freedom, twin rudders for stability and control, an ergonomic cockpit and a 7/8ths rig with aft-swept spreaders to go fast and far: the Allures 45.9S is ready to put to sea and sail across oceans as a couple or a family.
COMFORT AND DESIGN
Darnet Design has developed a modern, functional interior for the Allures 45.9S monohull, offering optimum comfort both under way and at anchor. The generous light and 270° visibility offer an immersive experience, while remaining protected.
SERENITY
Everything on board this aluminium lifting keel sailboat has been designed with your safety in mind: a watertight aluminium forward bulkhead, sail manoeuvring lines brought back to the cockpit and rudders designed for protection against impact. A serene atmosphere reigns aboard this great blue water sailing yacht.
DESIGN: A FUNCTIONAL, MODERN, AND COMFORTABLE MONOHULL
Design intérieur
Internal design
The design of the Allures 45.9S, developed by Darnet Design, encourages an influx of natural light into the interior spaces. The coachroof’s large overhead and side windows provide for practical watchkeeping at sea and at anchor.
Well thought-out details, such as the “Duo” chart table, the large saloon that can be converted into a double berth and the galley with its Corian worktop, are designed to meet the needs of blue water cruising.
Forward, the three owner’s cabin configurations, with options for movable double or twin berths, ideal for families choosing this liveaboard sailboat, can be adapted to suit your needs. Aft, in addition to the easily accessible engine compartment, there is a heads compartment with separate shower next to the engine room, also accessible from the cockpit via a large opening hatch.

Design extérieur
External design
The Allures 45.9S stands out for her elegance, a feature that is sure to attract the attention of those who catch a glimpse of one during a stopover or, better still, while sailing.
The foam-sandwich construction of the deck and the careful insulation of the aluminium hull will protect you from extremes of temperature - whether high or low - and judiciously contribute to this model’s weight control.
The Allures 45.9S offshore sailing yacht, with her lifting keel, wouldn’t really be an Allures if she didn’t have a reduced draft, like the centreboard version (the Allures 45.9). This boat offers you a lighter displacement and therefore greater performance, without compromising stability at sea.
