Dufour 44 for rent - sailboat charter

Step aboard the Dufour 44 “Horu” (2025) and set sail from Marseille on a modern, spacious sailing yacht designed for both performance and onboard comfort. With 13.91 meters of length and 4.45 meters of beam, this boat comfortably hosts up to 6 + 2 guests, with a layout ideal for families or small groups looking to explore the Mediterranean.

Inside, the yacht offers three double cabins, each with its own private electric bathroom (ensuite)—a rare feature in this size range that adds privacy and convenience. The central saloon features a convertible table, offering flexibility to create extra sleeping space or enjoy open lounging during the day.

Equipped with electric winches, a self-tacking jib, furling mainsail, and a bow thruster, “Horu” is easy to handle under sail and in port. Anchoring is effortless with an electric anchor windlass and chain counter.

Navigation and energy autonomy are well covered: you’ll find AIS, autopilot, GPS chart plotter, speed log, plus solar panels, an extra 180 L water tank, alternator, and modern electrical systems designed to support extended cruising.

On deck, enjoy a bimini top, sprayhood, cockpit table, and a dinghy included for shore access. The cockpit grill/barbecue is perfect for meals at anchor, and the cockpit area also features interior and exterior speakers, LED lighting, and comfortable seating.

Entertainment and relaxation are always at hand, with a 32″ TV, Bluetooth audio system, and thoughtful touches like a safe, modern appliances, and smart lighting to make every evening onboard enjoyable.

The Dufour 44 “Horu” is a great choice for those who want to explore the coast or the nearby islands from Marseille, combining privacy, functionality, and performance in one well-equipped yacht.
