A rare opportunity to acquire a highly distinctive aluminium cruising yacht, this Ovni 47 is believed to be hull number 3 of only four examples built. Privately owned throughout her life and never chartered, she combines the renowned strength and offshore capability of the Ovni range with a level of rarity seldom found on the market today.
Presented in good condition for her age, "Shindo" benefits from a fully renovated teak deck completed in 2025, alongside a comprehensive cruising inventory including a watermaker, Webasto heating, bow thruster and extensive sail wardrobe. Her proven bluewater credentials are complemented by practical systems and equipment designed for comfortable long-distance cruising.
Below deck, she offers comfortable accommodation with two double cabins, a third bunk cabin convertible to an office, two heads compartments, a spacious saloon with new Alcantara upholstery, a large chart table and a fully equipped galley. The layout provides an excellent balance of comfort, storage and functionality for extended cruising, liveaboard use or adventurous offshore passages.
Combining robust aluminium construction, serious cruising capability and exceptional rarity, "Shindo" represents a unique opportunity to acquire a truly distinctive offshore yacht.
