This latest model launched by Dufour Yachts was unveiled at Cannes Yachting Festival and doesn’t have time to reach the Southampton Boat Show. However, she’s a spectacular boat and has already received great media interest.

Hugh Mockler from Crosshaven Boatyard will be happy to discuss your needs and will be available for the full duration of the Show.

Hugh will also be commuting back and forth to the equally impressive Rodman Stand.

As described in the media, this “impressive new smaller yacht” is aimed at a more active audience.

The Dufour 32 comes with bags of attitude and fun placed at the heart of its design. With many space-saving innovations, it has a unique inflatable transom that doubles up as a floating bathing platform, and a cockpit table that converts to become a full-sized day-bed for sunbathing.
