The Charter Experience
Charter the Dufour 45 bareboat along the Amalfi Coast and discover why this stretch of southern Italy commands such devoted allegiance from sailing aficionados. The combination of reliable wind patterns, sheltered anchorages, and dramatic coastline makes this region ideal for both accomplished sailors and those seeking a confident introduction to bareboat ownership. Anchor beneath the clifftop villages of Positano and Ravello, explore the hidden coves near Capri, or cruise east toward the Cilento Peninsula's less-trodden waters. The yacht's responsive handling and well-distributed sail plan reward good seamanship whilst forgiving occasional imprecision.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical week might depart from Rome (via Naples), with days spent sailing to Capri, Positano, and Amalfi, interspersed with anchorages at quieter locations like Furore Fjord or the islands of Li Galli. The steady summer thermals and modest distances between anchorages allow time for swimming, local exploration ashore, and leisurely sailing days that don't demand constant vigilance.
