About this boat

The Dufour 445 “Grand Large” is a sailboat that will take you far with a great sense of security. Regardless of the weather conditions, this is a boat that loves a breeze. It is the ideal vessel in our fleet for long crossings to the Scilly Islands, England, or Ireland, as well as for winter sailing. The Dufour 445 GL is equipped with an EPIRB beacon and the necessary equipment for offshore sailing (> 60 nautical miles). The flagship of the Loc Voile Armor fleet can accommodate up to 10 people in comfort and safety for long or very long journeys. The design of the Dufour 445 GL allows it to comfortably carry up to 10 crew members in a spacious and well-arranged sailboat for life at sea. Inside, discover four sumptuous double cabins (2 in the bow and 2 in the stern), meticulously designed to combine comfort and functionality. Its long galley and wide saloon provide a very comfortable living space on board. The Dufour 445 “Grand Large” is definitely seagoing. With its battened mainsail, roller-furling genoa, symmetrical spinnaker on a pole, and two storm sails on a removable stay (storm jib and solent), you will feel safe even if conditions worsen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this boat insured, and who pays for damage?
Yes — every boat on charter.boats is insured by its operator; we require it. The policy covers the vessel for fire, collision and third-party liability. You're only responsible for damage it doesn't cover, and that's capped at the security deposit. Operator terms: All-risk insurance of vessel with 'rental option' included in rental rates. Covers civil liability, theft, damage from sea events, and total loss.
How much will fuel cost?
Fuel isn't included — you return the tank full. This boat's ~75 HP engine burn roughly 6 L/h while motoring, so a typical week (about 3 h a day, ~21 h) works out to roughly 126 L ≈ €246 at €1.95/L — scale it to your own plans.
Do I need a sailing licence in France?
No formal licence is legally required to skipper a bareboat sailing yacht, though charter companies expect a sailing résumé and usually an ICC or equivalent.
What happens if the weather is bad during my charter?
If Meteo-France issues a special weather bulletin for wind of force 7 or more covering most of your booking, we will give you a credit for the full rental amount, valid for twelve months. Days not sailed because of weather are not otherwise refunded, so plan to stay near a port or shelter in a gale.
What if my crew is not experienced enough to sail safely?
We may require a professional skipper at your expense if we judge the crew's skills are not sufficient to keep the crew and boat safe, regardless of any certificates presented.
Do I need a VHF qualification?
For boats fitted with VHF, at least one crew member must hold the required radio diploma; we accept no responsibility if no one aboard is qualified.
How may I not use the boat?
Subletting, lending, sub-chartering, commercial use, professional fishing and transport are all strictly prohibited, and you may only carry the number of passengers stated in your contract.
Do I have to keep a logbook?
Yes. The skipper must keep the logbook we provide up to date, recording navigation, any damage and repairs, and sea events. In a dispute the logbook is the reference used for insurance.
