The boat features a single deck with no flybridge but is equipped with a bimini top. There is no cabin — all space is dedicated to passengers. The composite hull ensures stability and a smooth ride even in choppy conditions, while the lightweight construction delivers excellent dynamic performance.
The Oceanus 21 VST is still in production and is available both new and on the pre-owned market. It is part of AB Yachts’ lineup of compact and maneuverable RIB boats, known for reliability, safety, and ease of operation.
Popular alternatives include: Azimut Atlantis 34— more spacious and comfortable but less maneuverable;Benetti 121 Classic— a different class altogether, a full-size superyacht;Bavaria Sport 29— larger but slower;Ferretti 450— a cruising yacht not designed for high speeds;Baglietto Tender 13— a heavier tender.
The Oceanus 21 VST outperforms these models in maneuverability, speed, ease of maintenance, and shallow-water capability.
The Oceanus 21 VST is built for dynamic cruising and active use. Thanks to its low weight, the boat planes quickly, performs confidently in waves, and offers highly responsive handling.
The open layout provides a comfortable cockpit, wide walkways, and ergonomic seating. The bimini top protects from the sun, while the hull design ensures a soft ride.
