The 2023 Dufour 530 is a 53.5-foot fiberglass cruising sailboat built by the French yard known for strong sailing performance and thoughtful interior design. Powered by an 80-horsepower Yanmar diesel engine with a folding three-blade propeller, the boat carries a seven-foot-six-inch draft keel and bowsprit. Key sailing features include a flat-deck headsail furler, stack pack with lazy jacks, rigid boom vang, electric cabin-top winch for the main halyard, German sheet system with electric winches, and cruising spinnaker gear. A retractable bow thruster aids maneuvering.
The interior layout offers three cabins and two heads across a well-appointed living space. The salon features an electric table with multiple positions and upgraded Signature Ambience finishes. Natural light enters through large overhead windows above the forward galley, which is equipped with a three-burner stove, oven, and an extra refrigerator. A 60-liter hot water tank supplies two electric fresh water toilets and the cockpit shower.
Deck amenities are extensive: wood cockpit floor and seat trim, electric windlass with dual controls, retractable davits, electric swim platform with ladder, and a stern plancha with sink. Additional equipment includes an electric salon table, mooring package with fenders and docklines, 110-volt shore power, battery charger, extra batteries, LED running lights, sliding companionway door, and a Knot Depth Wind GPS chart plotter with seven-inch screen at the helm. The boat is fitted with extra winches on the coamings and comes with an upgraded offshore mainsail.
