at the2008
US Sailboat Show

Winner
Cruising World Magazine's
Best Full-Size Cruiser
2009
TheSailingChannel brings you an in-depth look at the
Dufour 525 grand 'Large, the flagship of the Dufour
fleet.
At 52.5 feet length overall, the 525 combines sleek,
elegant European styling by French and Italian designers
with stiff, strong construction making her a safe and fast
blue water cruiser.
The topsides feature a low coach roof, uncluttered teak
decks, dual wheels, a German mainsheeting system operated at
the helm, wide transom, and electrically operated swim
platform.
Below decks, the mood is light and airy with a mix of
mahogany and lighter textures illuminated by multiple ports
and hatches. The owner can choose from 8 different layouts
that include three to five cabins with either a longitudinal
or u-shaped galley.
On the water, a deep V'd hull design delivers a favorable
compromise between sea kindliness and speed while electric
winches let the crew trim the sails with the touch of a
button.
Winner of
Cruising World Magazine's Best Full-Size Cruiser for 2009,
the Dufour 525 is a sleek, classy vessel that can transport
it's crew in safety and comfort anywhere its skipper chooses
to sail.
