ASTUS 26.5

ASTUS 26.5

The ASTUS concept, with its ease of use and its ability to move easily between different types of water, meets a real demand from yachtsmen for boats that are nomadic and high-performance.

In line with our commitment to offering high-performance, user-friendly products, the ASTUS 26.5 released in July 2025. It expands our range and provides enhanced comfort for coastal cruising.

After the successful renewal of the Astus range, with the contribution of the VPLP design studio, we are continuing to expand our range. With its modern, sporty lines, while remaining faithful to the concept of the ASTUSBOATS range, the ASTUS 26.5 is like its predecessors, a simple and efficient boat.


The ASTUS 26.5 is the result of a 5th collaboration with VPLP design, is sure to be the envy of many.

The ASTUS 26.5 incorporates all the features that have made Astusboats such a success:

  • Easy to build
  • Transportable, with its specially adapted trailer and floats on telescopic tubes, so it can be taken anywhere without constraint
  • Economical to run, with minimal maintenance and easy storage at home.
  • Nomadic, thanks to the ease with which it can be moved to different waters
  • Customisable, with 'à la carte' options depending on your sailing programme: leisure, cruising, sport.
  • Stable and safe, with its large-volume, inverted stem floats.
  • All-purpose, with its centreboard pivoting on the central hull
  • Fast, with a planing hull that glides smoothly and improves speed
  • Comfortable, with a tulip-shaped hull to deflect sea spray and create more living space
  • High-performance, with modern, sporty lines.

This time, ASTUSBOATS  has focused on comfort. The forward cabin can be separated with its own toilet area. The saloon is fitted with a galley and icebox. Everything is designed for short, comfortable cruises in mind. On the sailing side, the cockpit with coamings offers plenty of protection, ensuring both safety and real sailing pleasure.
