Universal Yachting is pleased to announce that the Southampton International Boat Show in September will be the stage for two highly anticipated launches: the first introduction of the Dufour 37 into the UK market and the exclusive world debut of the Dufour 41.

As the UK distributor for Dufour Yachts, Universal Yachting proudly showcases both yachts for private and open viewings. Allowing visitors to explore the finest craftsmanship, innovative features and cutting-edge design epitomised by Dufour Yachts.

Owner of Universal Yachting, Chris Warwick, expressed his delight about the two launches, remarking that the Dufour 37 and 41 are "Unparalleled choices for those seeking adventurous high-performance sailing, cruising with family and friends and chartering opportunities." Both models deliver an exhilarating sailing experience whilst combining functionality, comfort and style.

The Dufour 37 offers extensive versatility for coastal sailing, cruising and racing, and incorporates many additional features. She has a modern and stable hull and improved performance in all weather conditions. The sleek, slightly rounded lower hull design enables smooth passage through the water while reducing any interior noise. With an optimised power-to-weight ratio, enhanced helm control and increased sail area, this yacht ensures a fulfilling sailing experience every time. Equally performance-driven and boasting beautiful craftsmanship, the Dufour 41 prioritises an outdoor lifestyle, designed with a spacious deck plan and generously sized cabins exuding a luxurious feel.

Following an exclusive preview weekend in August, these new models along with the Dufour 470 will be available to view at the Southampton International Boat Show on Berths M315, M317, M321, M329 and M331.

Universal Yachting extends a warm invitation to boating enthusiasts and industry professionals alike to discover the wonderful world of Dufour Yachts and explore their unique fusion of innovative design, unrivalled comfort and superb performance. Renowned for creating yachts that celebrate maritime excellence with adventure and luxury, it is essential to see them firsthand to appreciate their many outstanding qualities.
