All about Dufour 500 model
Founded in 1957, the French shipyard Dufour is a major player in the construction of pleasure boats both in France and around the world. From the very beginning, this manufacturer was famous for its polyester hulls and looking for the very best in terms of elegance, comfort and performance.
This La Rochelle-based manufacturer employs more than 420 full-time employees and has over 18,000 m2 of workshop space.
The Dufour 500, designed in collaboration with the Italian architect Felci, is one of the manufacturer's largest models. She is a cruising yacht with an elegant silhouette and a well thought-out layout. Teak decking, clean lines and ingenious fittings come as standard. We'd particularly like to draw your attention to the tilting transom, which converts into a spacious swim platform.
The interior layout is tailor-made, offering 3 to 4 double cabins depending on the options chosen.
The 14.75 m long Dufour 500 is available in two different versions:
- The Dufour 500 Classic, with 100.8 m2 of sail area;
- The Dufour 500 Grand Large, with 130 m2 of sail area.
Both versions of the yachts were produced from 2012 to 2020. They are distinctly contemporary models that more than fulfil the expectations of the most demanding sailors when it comes to sporty or family cruising.

Remember to organize the transport of your boat to its home port. If it is a small boat, you can manage the transport yourself by purchasing a suitable trailer.

Do not hesitate to ask the seller to manage the transport arrangements for the boat.
