Dufour 470

Dufour 470 – Beautifully designed performance

Another winning creation by Felci Yacht Design, the 47-foot Dufour 470 sailing yacht is brimming with a classic style and sophisticated touches – true to the Dufour lineage of excellence in both aesthetics and performance. Sporting hard chines, a nearly flush deck and a broad stern, the Dufour 470 is a striking cruiser that will elevate every onboard experience, whether bluewater sailing or moored at your favorite anchorage.

Further, the Dufour 470 is available as a hybrid Smart Electric version, pairing advanced renewable energy production technologies with an innovative electric propulsion system – showcasing Dufour’s commitment to sustainable sailing.

Versions to match your cruising style

The designers of the Dufour 470 yacht have taken versatility to the next level with customized versions to accommodate a variety of cruising lifestyles: an Easy version, Ocean version and Performance version. 
The Easy version is for owners looking for simplicity and comfort, offering an elegant deck flow designed for easy mobility. The Ocean version features a traditional plan with the sheets positioned on the coamings and the halyard and mainsail trolley controls near the helm station. The Dufour 470 Performance version is perfect for lovers of racing,  its clew at the rear of the cockpit and its specialized “performance” equipment.

Outdoor innovations

Form and function harmonize effortlessly on the deck of the Dufour 470. The gentle curves of the coach roof are low enough for excellent visibility from the twin helms, while leaving space for wide side decks for easy movement. 

While many will choose the Dufour 470 for its performance, she is an entertaining wonder. Upon mooring, the large bench seats make excellent sunbathing beds, and the beamy aft cockpit area enhances the livability of the cockpit. 

The massive drop-down transom serves well as a swim platform for watersports and sunning,  as well as providing extra space for using the innovative outdoor galley, complete with plancha grill, sink, and plenty of counter space.

Dufour 470 yacht interior

Inside, the expansive salon and galley have the feel of a full-fledged yacht, both in the sheer volume and the refined finishes. Large skylights, hatches, and side windows provide ample natural lighting.

Dufour 470 specs include a choice of four interior layout configurations. The popular “front galley” layout offers 3-cabins and 2-baths including a forward owner’s cabin with queen-size berth and separate shower stall – all inviting and bright, thanks to large hull windows, an extra large overhead skylight window and 2 hatches.

Layouts featuring a “longitudinal galley” to starboard can accommodate larger crews with options for 3-cabin/2-bath, 4-cabin/3-bath, or 4-cabin/4-bath layouts.

I want to express my thanks and appreciation to your team. I was able to observe how professional and courteous each and every one of your team was to my wife and I – along with the other charter customers getting ready to depart for their sailing adventures. I also want to say thanks for taking good care of our boat. It has been an active winter and spring charter season for our boat and it still looks brand new and well cared after by your maintenance crew.

I had been thinking for a few years about buying a catamaran, after numerous rentals, so I went to the Grand Pavois and met Gerry Jacob at the Dream Yacht Charter stand. He explained to me perfectly the advantages of the different rental management/boat sales contracts, and I signed for an Astrea 42 the same day. Since then, everything has gone according to plan, I’m delighted and can’t recommend the company enough!

I’ve had a great experience working with DreamYachts in the purchase of my Bali catamaran. Being somewhat nervous in making such a large purchase, I found it to be pleasant and calming in working with you, taking the time to answer my questions and explain the nuances of ownership of a boat. Thanks for making a terrifying experience very enjoyable!

From identifying the correct vessel and arranging finance to organizing surveys and negotiating pre-sale repairs with the seller, you handled everything, while keeping me fully informed and feeling like everything was in hand. Over a year in and I’m still happy.

I’ve just come back from my Owner stay in Belize from the Placencia base with my family. It’s a base where I met staff who knew the whole fleet, and did their utmost to keep the equipment in good condition. The atmosphere is very family-oriented, and Yoan and Georges are very helpful, attentive and friendly. Georges knows all his boats by heart. We had a catamaran in very good condition and the pre-departure briefing on everything technical was detailed as never before. Yoan runs the base as if it were his own business, everything for DY, and that’s very rare.
