Offering an unparalleled sailing experience, the new Dufour 48 is a superb achievement by naval architect Umberto Felci of Felci Yachts Design.

With an emphasis on outdoor living, the model has a range of exterior living spaces, elegant lines and remarkable volume. Its aft cockpit delivers instinctive, safe and hospitable sailing. There are two dining tables and an optional hardtop for additional comfort and protection.

The popular aft platform returns, an outdoor galley is equipped with all the essentials for alfresco dining, including a plancha grill, and the yacht also features an innovative forward lounge with optional sunlounges.

12 m | Fantastic opportunity to get your hands on a nearly new Nautitech catamaran. A sporty, fast and comfortable cat with spacious interior. View in Auckland.

The Dufour 48 is available in three or four-cabin layouts with either a forward or lateral galley, premium comfort furniture, including saloon tables by Ardizio Design, and extensive storage.

Coachroof glazing has been redesigned for outstanding natural light throughout the yacht’s saloon and galley, while the cabins have blackout blinds for absolute comfort and undisturbed sleep as the sun rises. Dufour 48 owners will of course enjoy superior performance and comfort.

The first Dufour 48 in Asia Pacific is expected to arrive in mid-2025 – the highly-acclaimed Smart Electric version with ODSea+ package, fitted with the optional hard top over the cockpit.
