2024 Dufour Catamarans 48

The Dufour 48 is a 2024 fiberglass catamaran built around a thoughtful balance of interior and exterior living space. At 47.24 feet long with a 26.25-foot beam, the hull is powered by twin Nanni diesel engines of 120 horsepower each. The deck layout divides the boat into three equal sections: the forward area, the central cockpit zone, and the aft space—a proportional approach that distinguishes this model within its class and creates a genuine sense of openness.

Outdoor areas dominate the design. Twin sunbathing platforms occupy the bow, separated by a substantial storage locker and anchor well. The side decks run the full length, secured by substantial guardrails. The cockpit features two sets of steps—port and starboard—that lead to the flybridge, which functions as a second social platform. The flybridge includes a low dining table, generous seating, and an extended sun area, substantially expanding the outdoor living envelope.

Below, the boat accommodates six cabins and six heads. The layout prioritizes comfort across all seasons through a cohesive division of covered and open spaces, allowing multiple areas for relaxation and entertainment whether docked or cruising.
