Pleasant Company (Dufour 382 Grand Large)

Perfect for groups This 2019 Dufour 382 is a solid choice for 3, 4 couples or a small family wanting to sail the Mediterranean without breaking the bank. At 11.2 metres with three cabins and eight berths, you've got genuine comfort and sleeping space, rare at this price point.

Smart practical features The bimini and sprayhood mean real sun and weather protection; the lazy jack and lazy bag make sail handling genuinely easier, which matters on a week-long charter. Autopilot and chart plotter are essentials done right, so you're not fighting the boat.

Excellent value proposition At €3,190 per week with only a €3,000 deposit, this is keen pricing for a modern, well-equipped boat in the Mediterranean. You're getting a proven design with manageable systems, no temperamental quirks.

One practical note Malta Charters operates from the Valletta area, which means a short airport transfer if you're flying via Rome, Athens, or even London connections; confirm exact base location and whether they handle transfers, as logistics matter when you're coming from abroad.
