Description

The Dufour 485 Grand Large is widely regarded as a benchmark in performance cruising. Designed to merge genuine ocean-going capability with refined onboard comfort, she delivers speed, balance, and reassurance under sail. Built by Dufour Yachts, the 485 remains one of the yard’s most capable large cruising designs. This example was built in 2009 and commissioned in 2010. Since then, she has been professionally maintained and lightly used under skippered charter, which has ensured regular servicing and careful operation. As a result, she presents as a well-managed and consistently cared-for yacht. The yacht has benefited from recent refits and upgrades, including new sails, standing rigging updates, upgraded electronics, and comprehensive servicing throughout. She is fully coded for commercial charter (8-person category), which also provides reassurance around safety standards and compliance. At the same time, she is equally suitable for private bluewater cruising. Overall, this Dufour 485 Grand Large is offered as a genuinely turnkey yacht, ready for immediate use. She is currently lying in Gibraltar and available for viewing by arrangement. The Dufour 485 Grand Large is a 14.73-meter (48'4") sailboat designed by Umberto Felci and Patrick Roséo, built for performance cruising, comfort, and safety in all weather conditions. Produced by the French shipyard Dufour Yachts - regarded as one of the 'better' French production yards. A yacht that has been well managed and cared for and is EU VAT PAID. Mediterranean sailing/living anyone?!
