Dufour Yachts 44 Performance (2005) Zum Verkauf

DUFOUR 44 PERFORMANCE — 2005 — BLUEWATER-READY · BERTH AVAILABLE IN SÈTE
CAP MED BOAT & YACHT CONSULTING presents this 2005 Dufour 44 Performance, lying in Sète, France. An Umberto Felci design, this 13.45-metre performance cruiser with a 4.25-metre beam combines genuine seagoing qualities with real performance potential. Second hand, she has been looked after and maintained by a professional sailor.
A rare advantage: a berth in Sète is available with the boat — a significant asset for a yacht of this size, and one less constraint for the next owner.
She is just back from a seven-month cruise in Greece, covering approximately 3,010 miles: her reliability has therefore been proven in real conditions, over a full season and far from home port. Maintenance is regular and documented, with invoices available: engine and shaft line overhauled, last haul-out in May 2025, shower room refitted in 2025 and rigging reported in very good condition. Power comes from a Volvo Penta D2-55 showing approximately 3,800 hours.
The equipment list is that of a yacht prepared for offshore cruising and liveaboard use. Energy and water autonomy rely on a Dessalator 60 L/h watermaker, a hydrogenerator, 400 W of solar panels with an MPPT controller fitted in 2025, and Starlink connectivity to stay online under way and at anchor.
Handling is made easy by a bow thruster, a remote-controlled electric windlass with 90 metres of 10 mm chain and two electric winches. The sail wardrobe includes a 125 m² spinnaker and an 80 m² gennaker, to make the most of the sail plan downwind.
Also included: a tender with a Torqeedo electric outboard and a 12 V hookah diving system with 20 m of hose — ideal for hull maintenance at anchor as well as for diving.
Seaworthy, comfortable and fast, already extensively equipped, this Dufour 44 Performance saves her next owner considerable preparation costs before departure. She suits a cruising, voyaging or liveaboard project perfectly, with a recent usage history and a berth solution already in place.
