OVERVIEW
A sailing yacht representing the essence of Dufour’s DNA
The Dufour 54 represents the pinnacle of the expertise of the iconic Dufour Yachts brand. The culmination of the perfect collaboration between the passionate teams at Dufour, naval architect Umberto Felci, and interior designer Luca Ardizio. This is a sailing boat that fully takes its place in the new range thanks to innovations, first-rate comfort and incomparable seakindliness.
Particular emphasis has been placed on the quality of life outside, with completely redesigned spaces to fully realise your desire to get away from it all in the great outdoors. The interiors have also been designed to give you a total connection with the elements. The large windows provide a 360° view of the sea and the sky, wherever you are on the boat. Each room is bathed in a soft, warm light that makes moving around and life on board a pleasure.
Under sail, the Dufour 54 is a precise 16-metre boat that is a pleasure to helm. Every sailor and every captain can let their instincts guide them and enjoy the incredible sensations offered by this exceptional yacht. Being easy to handle, the Dufour 54 allows you to fully refocus on the pleasures and joys of sailing.
A sublime outdoor experience
The whole outdoor experience is a pillar of Dufour’s identity. Aboard the new Dufour 54, this is characterized by major innovations in the different living spaces found on deck.
The SKY LOUNGE COCKPIT is U-shaped, guaranteeing comfort, space and conviviality. There are two elegant cockpit tables offering comfortable seating. These lower to create two sun loungers, ideal for relaxing whether under way or at anchor.
At the bow, the Dufour 54 offers a second sunbathing area: the SKY LOUNGE DECK. This area, located at the foot of the mast, has two comfortable seats that can be raised to transform them into real sun loungers. This area will inevitably be the most popular with those seeking marine contemplation and relaxation.
The Dufour 54, like her smaller sisterships in the range, has a very spacious aft platform equipped with a proper outdoor galley. The SEA STERN COOK (marine outdoor kitchen) allows you to cook “with your toes in the water” while still maintaining a special bond with your guests or crew. This space is fully modular, the owner can choose between one or two plancha grills or even add a fridge or sink to the area.
The bathing platform is a sizeable space and provides access to the water much like you’d find in the finest pool houses. To enhance the practicality of this space, a double access to the cockpit has been designed to allow for pleasant ease of movement.
A real suite for stargazing
The exceptional Dufour 54 sailing boat invites you to explore the wonders of the Mediterranean, from the Italian coast to the islands of the Peloponnese, combining comfort and performance. This boat’s ease of handling and relaxation areas, such as the sunbathing areas and the aft platform, provide enjoyable and friendly sailing.
Designed with the turquoise lagoons of the Caribbean or the Bahamas in mind, she can handle the trade winds and adapt to the seabed depths thanks to the option of choosing between a deep or a shoal-draught keel.
A true cruiser, she excels as much at ocean passage-making as in coastal sailing, guaranteeing reliability and stability at sea.
Finally, the Dufour 54 reveals her full potential in Nordic seascapes, where silence and serenity accompany the crew as they explore fjords and large lakes. The hard top offers effective protection to the helmsman while guaranteeing an unobstructed view of the sails.
A yacht to be built in your image
The Dufour 54 offers a wide range of interior design options. This means that each captain can choose the boat that best suits his or her needs as well as those of their crew.
Unique for a sailing boat of this size, the Dufour 54 can be configured with a version offering up to six independent cabins, with five bathroom. This gives a clear idea of the space that this exceptional yacht can offer. Aboard the Dufour 54, each guest has a large cabin, making them feel right at home.
The Dufour 54 offers two different galley layouts. The first is found in most of the interior versions. The galley, with a sink, hob and oven, is on the starboard side. To port, a second area of the galley features a large refrigerator and a large worktop. Opposite this space, the Dufour 54 offers a beautiful area with a bench seat that can be converted into a real sofa thanks to the seats, which are also useful for seating guests at the table.
The second version of the galley is offered with the five-cabin version of the Dufour 54. It is located on the port side of the yacht and extends with a large worktop replacing the bench seat of the other version.
The interior saloon of the Dufour 54 is a large, comfortable space with a saloon table and plenty of seating. To make this space even more convivial, Dufour has included seats that can be moved to wherever they are needed to accommodate all the guests.
To maximize the customization options of each Dufour 54 sailing yacht, future owners can choose different modules and create their dream boat. For example, they can choose between two different bathrooms, a large storage space or a desk. At the very front of the boat, they can opt for a sail locker or a crew cabin.
