Our Take
Dream Yacht Charter's Dufour 470 at Port Pin Rolland, near Toulon: a 48.7-foot monohull with four cabins and four heads, plus a forepeak berth suited only to a child. That's how it reaches eleven; eight adults is the real number. A grill/plancha is listed for cockpit dinners, and a bow thruster and electric windlass help with stern-to berthing in busy French ports. There's no air-con, generator or watermaker, and 530 litres for eight people means regular refills. Draft is 2.25 m, which is deep, so check depths in smaller anchorages. Build year and hull name aren't published, so confirm at booking. Take it for four couples who want a big keelboat with an en-suite each.
Who It Suits
Four couples (8 adults) who want an en-suite each on a big monohull. Competent skippers; the 2.25 m draft needs watching.
