About the Dufour 390
What KateBot thinks
KateBot generated · ~200 words
Perfect for couples and small groups. The Dufour 390 is an excellent mid-sized cruiser that handles well for both experienced sailors and confident intermediates. With three cabins and six berths, it's ideal if you're bringing friends or family who want their own space without the complexity of a larger vessel.
Smart, modern setup. This 2023 build comes well-equipped for comfortable cruising, solar panels keep your battery topped up, the heating means you're not limited to summer months, and the sprayhood plus bimini make bad-weather sailing genuinely pleasant. The autopilot is a real quality-of-life feature on longer passages, and the chart plotter takes the guesswork out of navigation.
Solid value proposition. At just €2,000 deposit, the entry cost is reasonable for a newer, three-cabin boat. As a relatively recent Dufour model, you're getting a reliable, well-proven design with modern comfort features, no hidden nasties or tired systems to contend with.
One thing to note: The base location isn't specified in your data, so I'd confirm exactly where "Joy 5" is moored before booking. Once you know that, you can check airport transfer times and whether English-speaking support is available, particularly useful if you're flying in from the UK or US and want straightforward handover without language friction.
