The 6th edition of the #MydufourandI2024 photo competition launched

For six years now, the Dufour shipyard has been running a photo competition to reward the most beautiful shots of Dufour yachts taken by owners right around the world.

At sea, at anchor, with family or friends, hundreds of photos have been submitted. Share your passion for Dufour yachts with the community on Instagram using the hashtag #MydufourandI2024.

Whether you’re an owner or a charterer, keep your camera or your smartphone handy and let us discover the Dufour experience. Let us feel the immensity, freedom and serenity that can only be experienced at sea.

We’re sure your imagination and talent will produce the most beautiful images and, more than anything, take us on a voyage of discovery.

Film yourself ! Dufour’s 60th anniversary

To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Dufour shipyard, we invite you to film yourself wishing us a happy birthday aboard your Dufour sailboat in your native language. By tagging Dufour on Instagram, you will be contacted and receive a magnificent book retracing the history of the shipyard and sailing. With all the sailboats sailing around the world, we should break records!

Photo Contest

For this latest edition of #MyDufourAndI2024, six categories have been selected by the Dufour teams.

The winners in each of these categories will be rewarded. There are a number of prizes up for grabs, and the lucky contestants will have the pleasure of being able to equip themselves with some great prizes for their future sailing trips, with North Sails or B&G Sailing Electronics products.

  • The most beautiful anchorage

In a cove with turquoise waters and fine sand, deep in the nearest bay or on the pontoon at the end of your garden… Let us experience the beauty and comfort of a Dufour at anchor, the splendour of nature, alone in the world.

  • Lifestyle photo

Life is sweet aboard a Dufour yacht. Share with us all those moments suspended in time, sublimated by the sea and the environment that surrounds you. Alongside, at anchor, or under way, show us your philosophy of life aboard a Dufour yacht.

  • “Instinctive Sailing” prize

There’s nothing like a Dufour under full sail. The “Instinctive Sailing” Prize will be awarded to the photos that best illustrate the DNA of the Dufour brand. Show us the ease and grace with which our yachts glide across the seas.

  • For women sailors

Because sailing is not just about men, ladies have a place of honour in the #MyDufourAndI2024. Share with us your adventures, your sensations and your daily life aboard your Dufour yacht.

  • In harmony with nature

Respecting and protecting the environment and the oceans is one of the cornerstones of the Dufour brand. We know that many of you share these values and work every day to help preserve the environment. Show us what you’re doing to look after the natural world around you.

  • Photo and Video Reportage Prize

Because sailing is also about the voyage and the adventure… This prize allows you to send us a real photo or video report of sailing aboard a Dufour. Share with us your favourite experiences aboard your Dufour yacht.
