A 13-metre sailing yacht built for offshore journeys.
With its high freeboard, wide side decks and deep cockpit, the Dufour 44 inspires confidence from the very first moments.
Surfing the swell becomes a shared pleasure, sailing long legs an addictive experience.
It devours miles effortlessly, without ever losing the joy of the glide.
Under sail, it invites you to fine-tune, to feel the sea at your fingertips.
Featuring a slightly more raked mast — four degrees compared to the usual one and a half — the Dufour 44 asserts its personality: that of a lively and perfectly balanced yacht.
Its self-tacking jib ensures easy handling, while the optional genoa on track delivers greater upwind performance and power.
Its hull, both taut and smooth, transforms every gust into fluid acceleration, with controlled heel and constant command at the helm.
