Overview

Dufour 44: Three Cabins, Three Heads

Dufour 44Built by Dufour Yachts in 2025

The Dufour 44 on our Sicily and Aeolian Islands explorer flotilla was built in 2025. She has three double cabins and three heads with electric toilets, so every cabin has its own heads, and the saloon table converts for extra sleeping space.

Her fully battened mainsail gives her lively performance, and a bow thruster makes berthing easy in busy harbours. The cockpit has a barbecue and outdoor speakers for long evenings at anchor.
