Dufour 485 Grand Large (sailboat) for sale

**DUFOUR 485 GRAND LARGE**

Imagine leaving the Golden Islands (Porquerolles) at sunrise, slicing through a calm sea under sail thanks to its powerful hull that captures the slightest thermal breeze. The Dufour 485 was designed for life in the open air:

**An XXL cockpit worthy of a superyacht:** With its two steering wheels that clear the way, it's the heart of life on board. Ideal for large lunches in the shade of the bimini at anchor in the turquoise waters of Sardinia or Corsica.

**The integrated bathing platform:** A true private terrace at water level, perfect for diving before breakfast or easily boarding the dinghy to go ashore for dinner in an Adriatic port.

**A flush and clean deck:** The wide side decks and sunbathing areas at the front invite total disconnection under the Mediterranean sun.

Performance and Serenity under Sails

The Mediterranean is a magical but changing sea. The Dufour 485 reassures with its robust construction and stiffness to the sail.

Its waterline length offers an **exceptionally smooth passage through the waves**, even when the Mistral or Tramontane rises.

All maneuvers are brought back to the cockpit, allowing this 15-meter giant to be sailed with a reduced crew, or even solo, with disconcerting ease.

A "Penthouse" Interior: Luxury and Clarity

Inside, designer Patrick Roséo has created a warm and bright marine loft atmosphere:

**The Saloon:** An impressive volume bathed in natural light thanks to the numerous deck windows. The Moabi woodwork (high-end mahogany) brings that timeless elegance unique to large sailboats.

**The Owner's Suite:** At the front, a true haven of peace with a large central bed, generous storage, and its private bathroom.

**A galley worthy of a house:** Perfect for preparing local market fish or chilling rosé for your guests.

So don't hesitate and come visit this magnificent yacht.... whole text » less text
