The Dufour 44 is a modern, purpose-built cruiser that strikes an elegant balance between performance and comfort—ideal for exploring the Adriatic's crystalline waters and hidden anchorages from Marina Agana. Built in 2025, this 13.65-metre sailboat accommodates up to six guests across three well-appointed cabins, making it equally suited to families seeking a week of adventure or groups of friends wanting to share the experience of bareboat sailing. The three separate heads ensure everyone enjoys privacy, while the generous beam and thoughtful layout create a sense of spaciousness that transforms a week at sea into genuine relaxation rather than compromise.

Life aboard unfolds naturally between the generous cockpit and the well-equipped galley. The Bimini provides welcome shade during languid afternoons, while the pilot autopilot and GPS chartplotter—positioned conveniently at the helm—allow you to navigate the Dalmatian coast with confidence, whether you're an experienced sailor or chartering for the first time. The bow thruster makes close-quarters manoeuvring effortless, and the lazy jacks and lazy bag system mean sail handling remains straightforward even after a full day of exploring. Below deck, air conditioning, a full refrigerator, and the onboard desalination system ensure genuine comfort during warm Mediterranean evenings, while the Yanmar 48 hp engine provides reliable power when the wind falls calm.

A typical week traces the Adriatic's most rewarding route: emerald bays framed by limestone cliffs, stone villages perched above turquoise anchorages, and the kind of solitude that feels increasingly rare. You'll find yourself slipping between islands at dawn, swimming from the deck in water so clear you can see the seabed twenty metres below, and timing your arrival at remote coves to catch the sunset from the cockpit with a cold drink in hand. The Dufour 44 Premium delivers the freedom to craft your own itinerary while providing the systems and comfort that allow you to truly unwind—a rare combination that defines the best weeks at sea.
