The Dufour 360 Grand Large was presented in December 2017 at the Paris Boat Show.

Exterior and Interior Design

Designed by Umberto Felci, a regular partner of the shipyard, the new 360 is the length of its predecessor, the model 350. But the hull and superstructure have undergone several changes. The cockpit was enlarged by a new layout of steering posts with pedestals. The higher mast was installed without a backstag. Due to high sides and transom, the bathing platform was also extended. The hull has received new glazing, including a rare in such length panoramic roof glazing. Inside, the galley was rebuilt and two sofas were placed on the sides. The interior of the bathroom was renewed, USB connectors and led lighting were added. As in the older models, an additional panoramic window in the bow cabin has been added.

Amenities on board

The slim Dufour 360 tries to please owners with the «chips» of large yachts. For example, the stern has a grill and sink, a large swimming platform, a bimini and a cockpit table. The two-cabin version even has a decent size navigator’s table inside and Dufour does not forget about the sailing qualities. Options are available with a stacker or genoa. The mast is also available in matching lengths.

Features

With a modest yacht size, owners are not doomed to be alone. The enlarged sofas of the salon and the comfortable cockpit allow to receive guests and entertain them both in the berth, and in a short but fast transition.

Swimming area

The Dufour 360 Grand Large is conceived as a family boat for short coastal cruises.
