Luxury yachts Dufour

Whether you’re a keen cruising sailor or more of a racing fan, Dufour Yachts offers a wide range of sailing boats. Or maybe you’re dreaming of enjoying luxury yachting with friends. Each model is designed to meet the demands of Dufour owners in terms of marine performance and sailing comfort.

Among the brand’s 9 iconic models, more than 300 yachts leave our shipyard every year and with decades of experience in building luxury boats for sailing, you can be guaranteed you’ll be choosing the sailing yacht that’s right for you.

When considering the purchase of a sailing yacht, there are several questions you should ask yourself to help you choose the model that perfectly suits your needs.

• What exactly do you want to get from your sailing experience?
• Are you looking for a boat that’s easy to handle for leisurely trips, or would you prefer performance for sporty adventures at sea?
• How many people do you usually have on board?
• Are you planning to put your boat in charter management, or are you buying one purely for personal use?
• How often will you sail and what sort of distances do you plan to cover?

Finally, think about your home port and the space available in the harbour, as this could also influence the ideal length of your sailing boat.

By answering these questions, you’ll be able to refine your selection criteria and choose the yacht that perfectly matches your expectations and the way in which you sail.

To help you find the range that best suits your needs, our network of dealers  is there to guide you in your choice and offer you personalised support throughout the purchase of your luxury sailing yacht.

There will always be a top-of-the-range sailing boat from Dufour Yachts to meet your requirements.

The best sailing boat is always going to be the one that combines the pleasure of sailing with spacious, comfortable accommodation.

At the Dufour shipyard in La Rochelle, our teams master and perfect the entire process of building our sailing boats every day. From the design stage through to the launch of Dufour yachts, each step is designed to meet the needs of yachtsmen as well as to cope with the requirements of offshore sailing.

Do you focus more on the quality of life outside aboard your boat? Do you favour marine performance? Do you want modular, spacious and comfortable accommodation on board?

To respond to each of these expectations, Dufour designs and builds luxury yachts from 9 to 18 metres that offer a wide range of customisation options.

Our objective? To offer you a unique and exceptional sailing experience as well as being able to enjoy some unforgettable moments, whatever your needs: a circumnavigation aboard a family cruising yacht, a boat equipped for racing with friends, blue water cruising aboard a luxury yacht…

Agility under way and ease of handling, interior and fittings made from high-end materials, modern design, elegant hull and deck lines… With a sailing boat from Dufour Yachts, you’ll sail differently and enjoy a whole new experience at sea!

Beyond the technical and aesthetic qualities of our range of sailing boats, the monohulls built at our shipyard in La Rochelle give the promise of 100% French manufacture. It’s also the guarantee of our traditional know-how that we combine with the use of recognised and innovative methods to build sailing boats that meet our commitments to quality and eco-responsibility.

And this is demonstrated by some of our yacht models available in hybrid electric versions, as well as the choice of materials that enable us to bring to life the sailing boats of tomorrow.

• Dufour Yachts offers a flexible layout, guaranteeing you a personalised buying experience that will adapt to your sailing programme. The interior designs offer three distinct ambiances: the Boston style for a traditional feel, the Europe style for contemporary comfort, and the Millennium style for modernity that creates a statement of your individual style.
• You can also choose from a variety of options to personalise the interior and exterior of your yacht according to your requirements for comfort, style and function. This can include choices such as flooring type, finishing materials, cabin configurations, electronics, entertainment systems, and much more besides.
