"Easy to live on both at anchor and at sea, thanks to its large aft saloon. It combines comfort and speed to delight any skipper." A combination of long-distance cruising, speed and comfort.
The ultra-modern hull of the Cigale 16, designed by the architects at the Alubat shipyard, offers the best compromise between comfort and performance for long-distance cruising. A true marathon runner, which can be described as a crossover, it allows you to cover the miles in complete safety. The efficient and simple deck layout allows a small crew to handle the boat’s full potential with ease. Fast and elegant, the Cigale 16 is built entirely from aluminium to ensure safety; the cockpit has been designed to facilitate manoeuvres, particularly with an electric winch for the mainsail halyard, and special attention has been paid to the protection of the crew.

The quality of its interior fittings ensures perfect harmony with its clean lines. Its central saloon, which is very light thanks to its portholes and hatches, combined with a balanced layout of the cabins and bathrooms, makes it a very pleasant yacht to live on.

Efficient, easy and safe in all circumstances. This 2007 Alubat Cigale 16 is a second-hand yacht, fitted with a 55 HP Volvo Penta D2 75 SD engine.

The Alubat-built Cigale 16 ‘Sargantal Zulú’ is an aluminium-hulled vessel with special reinforcements in the hull, as well as high-strength, oversized rigging. Designed for ocean or offshore crossings with guaranteed seaworthiness in the most adverse conditions.

Although not designed for racing, it can sail happily as a good competition prototype and surf in suitable conditions. The aluminium construction allows for emergency hull repairs, with a high chance of reaching port safely for further repairs. The draught of 2.40 metres and a jib allow us to sail close-hauled in winds of over 30 knots. The beam and the wide stern facilitate and accelerate sailing downwind.

In short, safe and comfortable sailing in all conditions; in fact, the certification allows for sailing in waves of up to 7 metres.

The equipment: watermaker, generator, solar panels, VHF radio, comfortable accommodation and a variety of sail options make the Sargantal Zulú a vessel capable of satisfying even the most demanding sailors.
