Dufour Yachts | Dufour 41

The Dufour 41 brings together performance sailing, exceptional onboard volume and refined cruising comfort in a yacht designed to be enjoyable under sail and remarkably easy to manage.

Created by renowned naval architect Umberto Felci, with interior and styling design by Luca Ardizio, the Dufour 41 features a modern chined hull, generous beam, powerful yet balanced sail plan, single rudder and twin helm stations. The result is a yacht with excellent stability and direct feedback at the helm while remaining approachable for family cruising and short-handed sailing.

Easy sailing with a reduced crew is central to the Dufour 41. The standard Easy configuration combines a full-batten Elvstrøm Dacron mainsail with a self-tacking jib on furler, single-line reefing led aft, two coachroof winches, lazy bag and lazy jacks. Tacking requires very little intervention, allowing a couple or small crew to concentrate on sailing rather than managing multiple sheets.

For owners wanting even simpler mainsail management, the Dufour 41 is available with an optional in-mast furling system, allowing the mainsail to be deployed, reefed and furled with minimal crew involvement. Electric Harken winches, B&G autopilot, bow thruster and comprehensive electronics packages can also be selected to create an extremely capable short-handed cruising yacht.

For sailors wanting additional performance and sail-control flexibility, the Dufour 41 can be upgraded through the Ocean and Performance sailing configurations.
