The Dixon 73 is a 2012 bluewater cruiser designed by Dixon Yacht Design. Built from composite, this 73-foot sailing yacht balances comfort and performance for extended offshore passage-making. A single Yanmar diesel engine of 340 horsepower supports the sail plan, delivering a cruising speed of 8 knots and a maximum speed of 10 knots.
Below decks, the yacht offers five cabins and three heads, providing accommodation for a cruising party or charter use. The interior layout prioritizes comfort during long voyages, with the beam of nearly 20 feet contributing to spacious cabin volumes and livability.
The yacht underwent a comprehensive refit in 2020 and 2021, followed by additional work in the winter of 2022–23. These recent investments address systems, structure, and onboard functionality, preparing the boat for continued use.
