What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Perfect for couples and small families The Dufour 390 Grand Large suits groups of 4, 6 comfortably, though it sleeps 8 in a pinch. It's an ideal boat for first-time charterers or those wanting a reliable, modern cruiser without complexity.
Well-equipped and thoughtfully finished Musica ticks all the boxes: bow thruster for tight anchorages, autopilot for longer passages, and quality touches like a teak cockpit and bimini for comfort in warm climates. The 2021 build means systems are current and reliable, which saves frustration at sea.
Solid value proposition At this spec and age, the €2,800 deposit suggests competitive weekly rates for the Mediterranean or Atlantic bases where Dufour 390s typically sit. You're paying for a proven, low-drama platform rather than a luxury name.
One honest note: NSS Charter's 4.3/5 rating is respectable but not outstanding, worth checking recent reviews to see if any flag specific niggles like cleaning standards or maintenance responsiveness, especially if you're flying long-haul and can't do a thorough pre-charter walkthrough yourself.
