Architecture revisited for a modern design
The new Antares 9 stands out for its fluid, contemporary lines. Inspired by the larger models in the range, such as the Antares 11 and 12, it retains a strong visual identity thanks to a dynamic silhouette enhanced by elongated hull windows and a silver scroll. The long roof over the cockpit, extended by a protective cap, provides design harmony without compromising functionality.
The interior finishes are meticulously crafted: walnut woodwork, reinforced upholstery and padding create a warm, refined atmosphere for optimum comfort during your stopovers.
Modularity and user-friendliness: the advantages of the aft cockpit
The Antares 9 confirms its vocation as a weekender, with a generous aft cockpit (1.70 m x 2.40 m) designed for modularity. The L-shaped bench seat can easily be transformed into a U-shaped saloon by adding an additional seat, allowing several guests to gather comfortably around a table. This same bench seat can also be configured as a sunbathing area, a feature that will appeal to yachtsmen who enjoy idleness at anchor.
For protection against the elements, an elongated canopy effectively covers the space, making the cockpit welcoming in all conditions. A large bay window facilitates movement between the cockpit and the interior spaces.
A bright, optimized interior
The interior of the Antares 9 has been designed to maximize the quality of life on board. Bathed in natural light thanks to large side windows, the saloon offers a modular space with a pivoting pilot seat to accommodate up to five people around the table. The compact galley, integrated into the wheelhouse, includes practical equipment such as an 80-liter refrigerator, stove and storage space.
The sleeping quarters, comprising a spacious owner's cabin forward with queen-size bed and a guest cabin, provide comfort for multi-day outings. A functional bathroom completes the layout. The saloon can also be converted into an additional berth for occasional needs, bringing the total number of berths to 6.
Stable, high-performance navigation
With a hull optimized for offshore sailing, injection-molded for greater rigidity and lighter weight, the Antares 9 boasts excellent seaworthiness. Its outboard motor, with a maximum output of 500 hp (2 x 250), delivers excellent performance, with an estimated cruising range of 130 miles. The cockpit side door facilitates maneuvering in port, an asset for yachtsmen looking for simplicity.
The wide starboard gangway, secured by high balconies, allows easy access to the foredeck, equipped with a sunbathing area with folding backrests, ideal for enjoying the sunny days at sea.
Customization and equipment
The new Antares 9 offers a wide range of options to meet the specific needs of yachtsmen. Among the equipment on offer are modern energy solutions such as roof-mounted solar panels, lithium batteries and a generator. The boat can be fitted with air conditioning or heating, ensuring optimum comfort whatever the season.
Specific equipment such as a paddle rack and sunroof complete the model's modularity, transforming every outing into a personalized experience.
