Dufour 37 Charter

Dufour 37 Yacht Description

The 2026 Dufour 37 is a three cabin, one head monohull designed for family coastal cruising, with the comfort and onboard features usually found on a larger yacht.

Her forward-widened hull carries real volume for a boat of this length, most noticeably in the forward owner’s cabin. The cockpit is open and easy to move through, with twin helms that give a direct feel for the boat and keep the helmsman part of the conversation rather than set apart from it.

True to the way Dufour builds, much of life aboard happens outside. The transom folds down into a swim platform at anchor, and a plancha grill built into the aft rail makes an exterior galley facing the water.

This yacht is available for instructional, crewed and bareboat charters from our Jamestown, Rhode Island base, June – October.
