What KateBot thinksStrengths and trade-offs
Great family choice. The Dufour 470 is a modern, well-equipped cruiser built for comfort over performance, making it ideal for families or mixed-ability groups wanting to relax rather than race. With 5 cabins and 11 berths, you'll sleep everyone without cramming.
Smart kit included. The bow thruster, autopilot, and lazy bag system take real strain out of sailing and anchoring, genuinely useful in tight anchorages or when energy levels dip. A 2023 build means everything is current and reliable, and little extras like cockpit cushions and a bimini make time on deck genuinely pleasant.
Solid value proposition. The €600 deposit is refreshingly modest, and a well-specced Dufour 470 at Lascatutto rates competitively for a newer yacht of this size and cabin count in the Mediterranean. You're getting a turnkey holiday boat with no surprises.
One honest note: The outboard engine is functional but noisier and less powerful than an inboard, fine for maneuvering and crossing gaps, but don't expect zipping between islands. If engine hours matter to you, check the service history before booking.
