Dufour Yachts | Dufour 48 - Stock Boat

This beautifully specified Dufour 48 Ocean Version combines Dufour’s renowned sailing performance with the comfort, luxury and practicality expected from a premium bluewater cruising yacht. Offered as a new stock vessel in Australia, this example has been extensively upgraded from the standard specification, making it equally suited to coastal cruising, offshore passagemaking or extended liveaboard adventures.

Designed by renowned naval architect Umberto Felci, the Dufour 48 features a resin-infused GRP hull, twin helm configuration and a powerful yet easily managed sail plan. This yacht has been optioned with the premium Elvstrøm EPEX membrane sail package, including a full-batten mainsail, self-tacking jib and overlapping 108% genoa, providing exceptional performance while remaining easy to sail short-handed. Combined with six electric Harken winches, a bow thruster, hydraulic B&G autopilot and Jefa steering system, manoeuvring is effortless whether under sail or in the marina.

Below deck, the Ocean specification delivers a spacious three-cabin owner’s layout centred around a bright panoramic saloon, complemented by a dedicated home office with integrated washer/dryer, a beautifully appointed linear galley, two electric bathrooms and generous entertaining spaces. Reverse-cycle air conditioning throughout, upgraded battery capacity, inverter, microwave, TV preparation and numerous thoughtful comfort features ensure the yacht is equally capable as a luxury liveaboard or extended cruising platform.

Life on deck has also been extensively enhanced with the optional Ocean cruising equipment, including the full cockpit enclosure with sprayhood and bimini system, stainless-steel davits, electric fold-down swim platform, transom wet bar with LPG plancha, cockpit cushions, premium mooring package, electric anchor windlass with chain counter and numerous factory options designed for effortless cruising and entertaining.

Powered by the reliable 80HP Yanmar diesel, this Dufour 48 offers an exceptional balance between sailing performance, luxury accommodation and practical cruising capability. Fully equipped and available now, this highly specified Ocean Version represents an outstanding opportunity to step aboard one of Dufour’s most versatile and desirable cruising yachts without the wait associated with a factory order.
