The Dufour 425 Grand Large is a 42-foot fiberglass sailing yacht built for comfortable offshore cruising and strong performance. The design emphasizes stability and upwind ability through its fine bow entry, long waterline, and wide stern. The hull shape produces balanced handling and responsive steering, with the model earning CE Category A (Ocean) certification for extended voyages.
The interior layout prioritizes livability and ease of movement, with a bright, voluminous cabin space and thoughtful ergonomics throughout. The boat accommodates three cabins and three heads. On deck, wide side decks and simplified running rigging are configured for efficient handling, while twin wheels provide an open and comfortable cockpit. The practical deck plan makes the yacht manageable for a small crew.
Power comes from a single 40 hp Volvo Penta diesel engine, with a cruising speed of approximately 5.2 knots and a maximum speed of about 6 knots. The yacht is fully equipped and ready for cruising.
