About Bareboat Sailing Yacht Dufour 405 Grand Large
The Dufour 405 Grand Large is a purpose-built cruising yacht that rewards capable sailors with effortless handling and genuine ocean-crossing capability. Her modest dimensions belie a remarkably generous interior, with three well-appointed cabins suited to families or small groups seeking independence on the water. The saloon bathes in natural light through dual portholes, whilst the open deck layout remains intuitive even when sailing short-handed.
Below decks, the modern galley and spacious saloon provide genuine comfort during anchorages or passages. Cabin fans and dockside air conditioning ensure respite from tropical heat, whilst topside amenities including a bimini, spray hood, and generous cockpit cushioning transform long days at sea into genuine leisure.

The Charter Experience
The Windward Islands reward exploration by private yacht. From Grenada, you'll navigate crystalline anchorages between St. Vincent and the Grenadines, discovering reef-protected bays and isolated beach anchorages inaccessible to larger vessels. The steady trade winds suit the Dufour's balanced sail plan, whilst shallow-draft capabilities permit access to remote locations. Evening entertainment flows effortlessly from the cockpit speakers as you watch the sun descend over volcanic peaks.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical week might begin in St. George's, with passages to the Tobago Cays' protected anchorage, then southbound to Bequia and Mustique, exploring deserted beaches and reef systems before returning north. The steady trade winds favour unhurried coastal hops, allowing time for swimming, snorkelling, and provisioning ashore.
