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 ensuring owners enjoy every moment of outdoor living, the model has a range of exterior living spaces, elegant lines and remarkable volume.

Its aft cockpit has been redesigned to deliver even more instinctive, safe and hospitable sailing, and the model is also available with an optional hardtop for additional comfort and protection from the elements.

Movement on deck is simple and natural while underway, and two dining tables provide ample space for entertaining and relaxing at anchor.

The popular aft platform returns as a welcome feature on the Dufour 48, and this genuine outdoor galley is equipped with all the essentials for alfresco dining, including a plancha grill.

The yacht also features an innovative forward lounge with optional sunlounges for unrivalled comfort both underway and at anchor.

The Dufour 48 is available in a three or four-cabin layout with either a forward or lateral galley, and the yacht has been thoughtfully designed to feature premium comfort furniture, including exceptional saloon tables by Ardizio Design, as well as extensive storage.

The standard coachroof glazing has been redesigned as longitudinal windows with integrated opening hatches ushering outstanding levels of natural light throughout the yacht’s interior saloon and galley.

The spacious cabins are equipped with blackout blinds integrated into the ceiling to ensure absolute comfort and undisturbed sleep as the sun rises.

With the Dufour 48, the shipyard continues to exceed expectations of innovation and excellence while still preserving the brand’s DNA so owners can be confident of enjoying the superior performance and comfort for which the shipyard is renowned.

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

The Yacht Sales Co. will be hosting a special Dufour Yachts Showcase at the Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron on 25 & 26 October, where the Dufour 37, Dufour 41, new Dufour 44 (Asia Pacific premiere) and Dufour 470 will be on display.

Dufour Yachts’ deputy CEO will also be at the event to share details of the new Dufour 48 and the shipyard’s ODSea+ program.
