Dufour 37 sailboat

A unique, efficient and spacious sailing yacht

– Instinctive Sailing –

The Dufour 37 is the only yacht in her size range to offer so many living spaces on board.

The hull of the Dufour 37, like her big sistership the Dufour 470, is built using the infusion process for correctly controlled weight, greater strength and respect for the environment.

Thanks to optimised volumes and a bow designed for greater volume forward, the Dufour 37 offers a very spacious owner’s cabin at the front, with excellent headroom.

Whether the three-cabin or two-cabin version with its large bathroom, the interior of this model is bathed in light thanks to the large central hull windows.

The Dufour DNA

All the Dufour DNA has been retained: enjoy large outdoor living spaces.

The Dufour 37 benefits from the major innovations that made the Dufour 470 such a success: the bowsprit platform, the large deck hatches and hull windows, and the layout of all the outdoor space that makes it easy to move around on deck. You’ll also enjoy a bigger cockpit than on other yachts of this size.

Aboard this new model, as on all the latest models in the range, the emphasis has been placed on outdoor living.

Dufour 37

Highlights

IMPROVED MARINE PERFORMANCE IN ALL CONDITIONS

As for the seakindliness of this yacht, she benefits from a modern and stable hull as you’d see on offshore racing boats, but with a slightly rounded lower hull that favours her passage through the water, while reducing the sound inside the yacht.

This new hull form allows for a greater power/weight ratio for this boat that measures 10.8 metres overall: the feel at the helm is improved and offers more pleasure to the helmsman whatever point of sail you are on.

On this new model, and particularly in comparison with other models in her size category, the mast has been lengthened to give increased sail area and make this yacht even more powerful.

The Dufour 37, like her predecessor the Dufour 360, has a single rudder and twin steering wheels. Thanks to having just one rudder, you’ll enjoy greater responsiveness and liveliness as you are under way.

A SPACIOUS AND WELL THOUGHT OUT INTERIOR

For the interior, there are two layouts available depending on your sailing programme.

In the two-cabin version, you can enjoy a very large bathroom (and a large exterior storage locker), as well as two independent cabins, including the owner’s suite at the front. Six berths are possible thanks to the saloon table which can be transformed into a berth.

In the three-cabin version of the Dufour 37, up to eight guests can be accommodated.

In both layouts, you’ll find a forward owner’s cabin whose size and comfort is rarely found on a yacht of this length.

The hull windows and the headroom have been enlarged to bring even more light into the convivial living space of the saloon.

This area intelligently houses the galley, the saloon and the dining area, with the two-cabin version also including a small desk that can be used as a chart table.

DOUBLE COMFORT: ON BOARD AND AT THE HELM

Whether you’re coastal sailing or with your family, racing with friends, or cruising around the world (this model is in Category A), the Dufour 37 will meet all your expectations.

As with the latest Dufour models, this new model is over-equipped with features: the plancha grill, found on the aft deck, is an essential feature on the latest Dufour models; fully inflatable cockpit upholstery and a forward sunbathing area complete the exterior layout of this new model.

The Dufour 37 will accompany you on your wonderful cruising.

What are the advantages of the 10m Dufour 37?

Imposing, optimised dimensions for a 10-metre sailing yacht

The Dufour 37 boasts remarkable dimensions: a total length of 10.77 metres and a beam of 3.8 metres. These proportions blend elegance and stability. Thanks to the skilful design of the interior and the presence of various hull and deck windows, Dufour has succeeded in creating a generous feeling of space, hitherto unknown in the 10-metre range. The double door to the forward cabin further enlarges the living space.

Luxurious interiors for this 10-metre yacht

Spacious and comfortable living areas

In addition to its impressive nautical features, the Dufour 37 excels in the area of interior comfort. With a headroom of 1.8 metres and intelligent use of space, all those on board enjoy a sense of freedom rarely seen on a boat of this size.

The saloon is luminous, with the décor comprising carefully crafted materials, leading to a bright and warm atmosphere. The 3-cabin version can accommodate up to 8 guests thanks to the convertible saloon. The 2-cabin version has an extra-large heads compartment and a large deck locker.

A practical, fully equipped galley

The L-shaped galley is found on the port side of both versions, opposite the bathroom with its great facilities. In general, the interior design of the Dufour 37 has been conceived to make the most out of the space available. Several storage areas are accessible under the berths and bench seats, as well as in various cupboards located above the hull windows in the saloon.

Comfortable cabins

The cabins offer a private and comfortable place to rest after a day at sea. With spacious beds and built-in storage, the Dufour 37’s cabins have nothing to envy from the rooms of a top-of-the-range hotel. The meticulous finish and the use of quality materials contribute to creating a soothing and refined environment.

What about features for cruising?

Adaptable deck layout

For those seeking a little more cruising pleasure, the Ocean version is a must. Equipped with 2 additional winches on the cockpit coaming and a Dacron genoa with adjustable sheet cars. The double mainsheet can be trimmed from either side. The Performance version goes even further for racing enthusiasts. At the helm, there’s a good view forward and a choice of seating positions. The two Jefa helm stations are topped by black instrument panels and an integrated handrail for easy movement around the cockpit.

A hull designed for performance

Based on a design by Umberto Felci, the hull of the Dufour 37 offers an excellent power-to-weight ratio. This balanced ratio means the boat can maintain a good speed, even in light airs, without sacrificing any of the handling characteristics. Thanks to her fluid lines, the boat cuts through the waves with remarkable ease.

Optimised power-to-weight ratio
Lightweight, robust materials
Fluid, dynamic hull lines

With a draft of 1.9 metres, the Dufour 37 can easily navigate a wide range of waters, from the coastline to deeper seas. She also boasts 18.8 hp of engine power, which is invaluable when manoeuvring in harbour or if there’s no wind.

What are the advantages compared with other 10m yachts?

Space comes first!

Space comes first! Compared to other yachts in her category, the Dufour 37 stands out for the amount of headroom, the imposing deck layout and the huge interior/exterior living spaces that result. The Dufour 37 offers incomparable natural light, further enhancing the feeling of space on board. The forward cabin, accessible via two large doors, also accentuates the impression of space below deck.

A true Cruising Boat

The on-board comfort in no way detracts from the sailing ability of the Dufour 37. Even in light winds, the boat accelerates and the pleasure of sailing can be felt from 10 to 12 knots. The standard self-tacking jib ensures particularly easy handling, and the genoa gives greater performance. The Dufour 37 is available in 3 versions: Easy, Ocean and Performance, to suit the most demanding sailing programmes, from pleasure cruising to amateur racing.
