About Bareboat Catamaran DUFOUR 48

The Dufour 48 is a generously proportioned catamaran designed for discerning charterers seeking stability and space across the Adriatic. Hand-laminated construction and meticulous French assembly deliver the refinement expected of this pedigree, whilst the hull design promises responsive handling and passenger comfort in all conditions.

Seven cabins accommodate substantial groups with flexibility, offering five double berths, a twin bunk cabin, and two single cabins across dual hulls. The layout minimises crowding, with six heads distributed throughout. Air conditioning, heating, and a watermaker ensure year-round comfort, whilst solar panels and generator systems provide autonomy for extended cruising.

The main saloon functions as an elegant gathering space, separated from a well-equipped galley where meal preparation becomes straightforward. Above deck, the generous cockpit and flybridge provide multiple vantage points for dining and observation, with a bimini providing shelter during Croatia's intense summer sun.

Highlights

  • Seven cabins with six heads for serious group comfort and privacy
  • Twin-hull stability with shallow draft for island exploration
  • Full climate control, watermaker, and solar charging for self-sufficiency
  • Dual entertaining spaces; generous flybridge and protected cockpit

The Charter Experience

The Dalmatian Coast presents an ideal cruising ground for bareboat parties. Medieval walled towns, sheltered anchorages among 1,400 islands, and 350 kilometres of unspoiled shoreline create natural waypoints between Split and Dubrovnik. Clear waters invite swimming and water sports; kayaks, paddle boards, and fishing equipment are available for hire. The Dufour 48's beam and shallow draft access remote coves and narrow island passages inaccessible to larger monohulls, whilst twin hulls provide stability for relaxed evening entertaining at anchor.

Suggested Itinerary

Base your week from Split, progressing south towards Hvar and the scattered islands of the Paladuru group. Day two brings the Elaphiti Islands near Dubrovnik, where sheltered anchorages permit evening swims. Reverse course northward to Vis, celebrated amongst sailors for its isolation and underwater clarity, before returning to Split via Brač and the Adriatic's most frequented but never overcrowded sailing grounds.
