DESCRIPTION:
This 2023 Dufour 390 presents a rare opportunity to acquire a late-model, exceptionally outfitted performance cruiser that balances comfort, quality, and sailing performance. Ordered with an extensive factory and dealer upgrade package, then thoughtfully refined with custom modifications and premium sail inventory, she stands out from comparable offerings. With her two-cabin, one-head layout, large cockpit-accessible storage locker, and upgraded power systems, she is equally at home on extended cruising adventures or coastal passages.
The Dufour 390 was designed by Umberto Felci as part of the Grand Large series, celebrated for modern hull form, abundant natural light, and versatile sail handling options. This particular yacht benefits from upgraded Volvo 50 hp engine with folding propeller, bow and stern thrusters with upgraded proportional controls (a major upgrade rarely found on this size yacht, with controls at helm), dual electric primary winches and an electric halyard winch, plus a full electronics suite including autopilot, AIS, radar, and cockpit loudspeaker.
She is equipped with an In-Mast Furling Mainsail System, providing effortless sail handling and simple reefing directly from the cockpit. All major sail controls are led aft to the helm for single-handed sailing, a major custom upgrade that enhances safety, ease, and confidence while underway.
On deck, she features Flexiteek synthetic teak decking on cockpit and side decks, Carbonautica composite helm wheels, custom canvas package with bimini, dodger, connector, and integrated LED strip lighting, lifeline gates, stainless bow protection, retractable davits, outboard engine bracket, and the popular cockpit grill and sink module. A Mantus anchor system with 200’ chain, Quick chain counter & control at the helm, plus deck remote, ensure reliability and ease when anchoring. The upgraded Quantum tri-radial mainsail and 108% jib (new in 2024), plus a never-used North Sails Helix furling gennaker (~$6,000 value), round out a premium package that enhances performance and versatility.
With thoughtful customizations, deletions of unneeded factory options, and dealer-installed enhancements, this Dufour 390 is optimized for ease of handling, safety, and cruising comfort. She represents a turnkey, nearly-new yacht with all the benefits of custom commissioning, without the wait or expense of new build.
