Cygnus (Dufour 460 Grand Large)

Perfect for families The Dufour 460 is a brilliant choice if you're bringing kids or want to split costs with friends, 10 berths across 4 cabins means everyone gets their own space without feeling cramped. It's a proven, sensible cruiser that won't demand expert sailing skills.

Comfort matters here Solar panels, air conditioning, heating, and a proper galley make this feel less like roughing it and more like a floating holiday home. The bow thruster and autopilot take stress out of tight anchorages and longer passages, while the sprayhood and bimini keep you shaded and dry.

Solid value proposition At €3,375/week plus a €3,000 deposit, you're paying reasonable money for a well-equipped 2018 boat that handles 10 people, that's about €340 per person per week if you fill the berths. You get modern conveniences (chart plotter, AC, solar) without premium pricing.

One honest heads-up We don't have the charter base location listed, so I can't tell you airport transfer times or how convenient the logistics are from your home airport. Before committing, confirm where this boat is based and factor in your international travel costs, that matters for total trip value.
