Presentation
The flagship of the Dufour range, the Dufour 54 is a 16.84 m sailing yacht designed for long-distance cruising. It combines the performance and seaworthiness of a large sailboat with yacht‑style living spaces, offering open views to the sea, extended autonomy and energy‑efficient technical solutions.

Ambience & philosophy
The Dufour 54 is conceived for extended passages: bright volumes, fluid circulation, refined finishes and modular layouts. Emphasis is placed on owner comfort (forward king‑size suite), outdoor living (Skylounge Cockpit, Skylounge Deck, Seaside Kitchen) and autonomy options (hybrid propulsion, solar roof, ODSea+ pack).

Living areas

• Skylounge Cockpit: U‑shaped seating, modular tables, convertible into large sunbeds.
• Skylounge Deck (forward beach): adjustable loungers, panoramic salon facing the horizon.
• Seaside Kitchen (aft platform): configurable outdoor galley with sink, refrigerators and double plancha for cooking facing the sea.
• Interior: alcove galley, dedicated bar area, large bright saloon, forward owner suite with dressing table and XXL washroom.

Technology & propulsion
The Dufour 54 is available in hybrid / ODSea+ versions. A centralized energy architecture optimizes the use of renewable sources to reduce noise and energy footprint while ensuring onboard comfort and autonomy.
