This new 44-foot Dufour yacht is meticulously crafted with a keen focus on detail, ambiance, and material selection. The outcome is a cozy, well-lit environment that offers more space and storage than ever before.

The Dufour 44 yacht provides a choice of four distinct layouts, featuring either three or four cabins, and the option of a longitudinal galley or a forward galley.

Meanwhile, the longitudinal galley retains ample storage space and offers a spacious work surface

In line with Dufour’s core design principles, the deck layout has been meticulously crafted to provide a seamless and exhilarating sailing experience. The space between the helm station and the two winches has been expanded to facilitate smoother sail handling.
