Dufour 382 Review

The versatile Dufour 382 Grand Large – a wolf in sheep’s clothing Designed to optimise on board comfort in all sailing conditions, the 382 GL is a highly versatile all-rounder with six distinct versions, and an extensive choice of galley, cabin and heads combinations.

Dufour 350 Review

Dufour Yachts 350 Grand Large – deceptively spacious and behaves like a much larger boat. Designed to look great, sail well, offer maximum space and comfort, the 350GL seeks to be as practical and functional as possible borrowing features from its larger sisters in the Grand Large range.

Dufour 310 Review

This fast, nippy 9.35m long yacht may be the smallest in Dufour’s Grand Large range, yet she has bags of character and is easy to steer short-handed or even single-handed. A sophisticated, compact yacht with excellent performance, combining all the technology, iconic style and comfort that can be packed into her from the larger Grand Large models.

Dufour 460 Review

The Dufour 460 Grand Large offers a perfect balance between functionality and elegance. Defined by her sleek and beautiful lines the Dufour 460 certainly stands out from the crowd and is much admired on any dock. Read our review and find out more.
