Perfect starter yacht The Dufour 360 is an excellent choice for families or small groups new to bareboat sailing or wanting a relaxed week without heavy-duty boat handling. At 10.3 metres, it's manageable for less experienced crews while still offering genuine comfort and capability.

Well-equipped comfort This 2020 model comes nicely sorted with practical touches like a lazy bag (making sail handling easier), autopilot for those longer passages, and a swimming platform, ideal if you're chartering in warmer waters. The bimini and sprayhood mean you're protected from elements, and heating suggests year-round usability in Mediterranean or Atlantic conditions.

Solid value proposition At €1,577 per week with only a €3,000 deposit, this represents genuinely competitive pricing for a modern, three-cabin yacht in this size range. You're getting a recent build with proven systems, which typically means fewer maintenance surprises during your charter.

One fair caveat Six berths across three cabins means at least one cabin will be snug, fine for couples or kids, but worth confirming layouts if your group values personal space. Also, we'd recommend confirming the charter base location and transfer time from your arrival airport before booking, as logistics matter when flying long-haul.

Cancellation

Cancellation terms are operator-specific and disclosed in the charter contract before payment. As a rule, most Mediterranean operators retain the full charter fee within 30 days of departure; we recommend charter cancellation insurance (typically 4-5% of the charter fee).
