Overview

Dufour 430 Grand Large: Room for Larger Groups

Dufour 430Built by Dufour Yachts in 2019

The Dufour 430 Grand Large on our Sicily and Aeolian Islands explorer flotilla was built in 2019. She has four double cabins and two heads, with eight berths, so she is ideal for larger groups or two families sailing together.

Her fully battened mainsail and furling genoa give her good performance in the summer breezes, and a bow thruster makes berthing easy. The teak cockpit has a barbecue for evenings at anchor.
