A new way to experience cruising

Designed to adapt to every style of sailing, the Dufour 39 introduces a new generation of cruising sailboats. Smooth under sail, intuitive to handle, and remarkably open to the sea, it combines sailing performance, onboard comfort, and modular living spaces in an exceptionally versatile 39-foot yacht.

With her balanced lines, generous outdoor living areas, and flexible layout options, the Dufour 39 is equally at home on short-handed cruises, family adventures, or more performance-oriented sailing programs.

More freedom, more intuitive sailing

The Dufour 39 has been designed to make sailing simpler, smoother, and more enjoyable every day. Every circulation area, maneuver, and living space has been carefully engineered to create a natural onboard experience — both under sail and at anchor.

Designed by Umberto Felci in collaboration with Luca Ardizio, the Dufour 39 benefits from an all-new hull architecture balancing stability, sailing performance, and interior comfort. Her single rudder configuration delivers precise, responsive helm control while simplifying handling, especially for short-handed crews.

The result is a cruising yacht that offers genuine sailing sensations while remaining accessible, comfortable, and easy to enjoy in all conditions.

A sailing yacht adapted to your lifestyle

The Dufour 39 is far more than a one-program sailboat. Its modular design allows it to evolve around your sailing style and the way you choose to experience life at sea.

Family coastal cruising, sailing as a couple, long-distance escapes, remote working onboard, or a more performance-driven setup — the Dufour 39 adapts to your ambitions.

Several deck and sail plan configurations are available, including:

  • Easy-sailing setup with self-tacking jib and furling mainsail
  • Performance-oriented version with overlapping genoa and performance square-top mainsail
  • Multiple interior layouts tailored to your cruising program

This rare versatility in a 39-foot sailing yacht allows you to create a boat truly designed around your project.

Outdoor living at the heart of the experience

Onboard the Dufour 39, life outside becomes central to the cruising experience. The cockpit has been conceived as a true open-air living space — modular, welcoming, and deeply connected to the sea.

The innovative Skylounge Cockpit combines navigation, circulation, and relaxation into one seamless and sociable environment. Twin helms improve movement onboard while reinforcing the yacht’s open and spacious feel.

The famous Dufour Seaside Kitchen, the transformable swim platform, configurable seating areas, and multiple exterior layout options all contribute to a natural continuity between the yacht and the water.

Whether sailing offshore, relaxing at anchor, or enjoying life in the marina, the Dufour 39 is designed to maximize comfort, freedom, and outdoor living.

A bright, comfortable, and flexible interior

Thanks to her large hull windows and generous interior volumes, the Dufour 39 offers a remarkably bright and welcoming atmosphere below deck.

Available in both two-cabin and three-cabin versions, she offers several interior configurations to match your cruising lifestyle:

  • Dedicated workspace for remote working onboard
  • Flexible storage solutions
  • Additional bathroom configuration
  • Optimized technical spaces
  • Comfort-focused long-stay layouts

The forward owner’s cabin benefits from exceptional volume for a yacht in this category, creating a true feeling of space and comfort at sea.

Every detail has been designed to make extended cruising easier, more comfortable, and more enjoyable.

Performance, comfort, and simplicity – without compromise

The Dufour 39 represents a new vision of the modern cruising sailboat: more adaptable, more open, and perfectly aligned with today’s sailing lifestyles.

Her modern hull design, generous living spaces, modular configurations, and exceptional outdoor areas create a rare balance between:

  • Sailing sensations
  • Ease of handling
  • Onboard comfort
  • Versatility

A sailing yacht designed for those who want to experience the sea their own way — without compromise.
