We were looking for an ocean-going yacht which would answer a sailor's legitimate requirements within the limits of a reasonable budget, that is :
- safe in the toughest conditions,
- high-performance, and enjoyable at the wheel,
- adaptable to all moorings,
- comfortable and user-friendly,
- elegant (interior as well as exterior)

Within our budget we soon realized there was hardly any choice available. Day after day we met sailors who'd come to the same conclusions: our requirements and our dreams were the same but there was no yacht yet to fulfill them. So we founded Allures Yachting.

For months prior to reaching the conception of our boats we had hours of fascinating discussions with a wide range of sailors - some anonymous, others famous - and integrated the experience acquired through thousands of miles over the seas of the world.

A close analysis of all these experiences gave us our key principles :
- aluminum for safety,
- a centerboarder for increased freedom,
- composite superstructure for performance, comfort and elegance.

Along these lines we are developing a range of sail yachts designed to fulfill all your yearnings. The Allures 44 is our firstborn, the Allures 40 our second born and we have started designing a larger model.
