Lady D (Dufour 390)

Ideal for couples or small families Looking at the Dufour 390, this is a solid choice if you're sailing with one other couple or a small family of four. The three-cabin layout works well for groups wanting privacy without needing a much larger (and pricier) yacht.

Well-equipped modern cruiser She's only a year old, so you're getting current-generation Dufour build quality with a smart equipment spec, autopilot, chart plotter, bimini, sprayhood, and a proper teak cockpit make for comfortable cruising and easy passage-making. The inverter and holding tank mean you've got decent onboard amenities for week-long charters.

Reasonable value proposition At 11.9 metres with this spec and 2023 build year, the €2,500 deposit suggests competitive daily rates for a newer boat in a good charter fleet. You're paying for modern equipment and reliability rather than stretched over-capacity, which is honest positioning.

Base location unclear The operator (SK-Yachting) is solid, but the charter base isn't specified in your data, that matters for flight connections and transfer times from major European hubs. Before booking, confirm where you'll be based; if it's somewhere like Croatia or Greece, you're looking at reasonable connecting flight options from the UK or US.
