Andrew, and Andrew are both fantastic. Transaction was smooth and professional highly recommend the team over at Multihull.

— Paul Fosler

I just purchased my first large boat (my dreamboat) and Michael Streng and the rest of TMC was amazing! I really felt like I was a VIP customer because they were fast and easy to communicate with and worked ahead of me. It really was a treat and I would use them again any day!

— Collin Simmons

Andrew Hodgdon and The Multihull Company have done an extraordinary job facilitating the sale of our catamaran. There were a couple of challenges (geography and timing) that made this sale a little tricky, but, as usual, Andrew was amazing. I’ve been buying and selling cruising boats for over 12 years and Andrew is, without a doubt, the best broker I’ve worked with.

— Mort Orlov

Andrew Hodgdon at TMC-St. Augustine kept us thoroughly informed during the sale of our boat and took the extra steps necessary to complete the deal. His knowledge of the process made a complex deal very easy. Needless to say, we are extremely happy and satisfied with the job that Andrew did.

— David Baxter

A shout out to Andrew Holland at the TMC main office, who handled the closing transaction of the sale of our boat. Very professional and thorough. Thank you!!

Dufour 48 sailboat

An innovative luxury yacht of almost 15 metres.

The Dufour 48 yacht offers an unparalleled experience and promotes living in the great outdoors, a return to the ocean. This luxury 15- meter sailing yacht reveals an aft cockpit that guarantees instinctive, safe and convivial sailing. A new feature is a second cockpit with sunbathing areas forward on the yacht, offering unrivalled comfort both under way and at anchor.

With the Dufour 48, the shipyard is continuing to innovate, again and again. The DNA of the Dufour brand has been preserved to offer owners the performance and comfort they deserve. The teams’ extensive know-how and experience promise a robust, efficient yacht for all types of boating.

A LUXURY YACHT DESIGNED FOR OUTDOOR LIVING

The Dufour 48 luxury yacht has been designed for enjoying the fresh air on the ocean. Life on board is comfortable at all times, both below deck and outside.

The aft cockpit has been redesigned to offer significant space. When under way, moving around on board is simple and natural. Two tables provide a splendid spot for enjoying meals or simply relaxing at anchor.

What would a Dufour be without its aft platform? Once again equipped with a plancha grill, it comes with a host of new features. It’s a genuine outdoor galley, equipped with all the essentials.

To complete the layout, the Dufour 48 has a second cockpit, this time, forward. Here, a sun lounger can be installed for unforgettable moments of relaxation at anchor or under way.

EVER MORE MODERN LINES

The design of the Dufour 48 sailboat has been redrawn by naval architect Umberto Felci of Felci Yachts Design. The lines are fluid and the boat offers a great amount of volume. The usual coachroof glazing has been redesigned as longitudinal windows with integrated opening hatches.

EXCEPTIONAL LIGHT

Already a focal point aboard previous models of the Dufour 48, light is once again a major feature. The coachroof’s full-length windows provide constant light, which is diffused throughout the interior saloon and galley.

When the mattresses from the sun loungers are removed from the forward cockpit, large windows are revealed, letting in even more light to the yacht’s interior.

OPTIMISED INTERIORS

Depending on which version of the Dufour 48 sailboat you choose, all the furniture has been optimised to ensure unrivalled comfort. If you choose the forward or lateral galley, there is always plenty of storage space provided.

Dedicated interior saloon tables have been created by interior designer Ardizio Design. These are optimised for the three- and four-cabin versions.

In the cabins, blackout blinds are integrated directly into the ceiling. So, despite the brightness of the boat, you won’t be disturbed by the very first rays of daybreak.

New on the Docks: Leopard 46

  • By Cruising World Staff
  • September 18, 2024

Leopard 46 side view

Leopard Catamarans has unveiled the Leopard 46 sailing cat.

“The Leopard 46 is a testament to Leopard Catamarans and Robertson and Caine’s commitment to engineering excellence and elevated onboard living,” Franck Bauguil, global sales manager at Leopard Catamarans, stated in a press release. “We have meticulously designed and built a vessel that not only delivers exceptional performance but also provides an unparalleled level of luxury and comfort.”

Franck Bauguil

The Leopard 46 has an exterior design inspired by powercats. Its wraparound coachroof windows allow for panoramic views and lots of natural light inside. The companionway sliding door fully retracts abaft the helm station, connecting the saloon and cockpit as a single area for relaxation and entertainment.

Other key features include a hybrid electric drive option and integrated solar panels, both of which have the potential to make cruising more sustainable and efficient.

Leopard 46

Leopard allows owners to personalize the 46 by ordering one of several layouts. Options include three staterooms plus a utility room; or four- and five-stateroom variations. Owners also can choose the configuration of tables and furniture in the saloon and cockpit.

Leopard 46 on the water

There’s an optional performance-sail package, as well as an optional lifting tender platform.

Where to see the Leopard 46: The boat is expected to be at the Annapolis Sailboat Show in October, where it will be a nominee for Cruising World ’s 2025 Boat of the Year. It will also be available for charter through The Moorings and Sunsail.

Dufour 48 Catamaran Vs. Lagoon 46

Catamaran comparison, in this article, we compare the all-new lagoon 46 and the dufour shipyard’s first catamaran dufour 48., multihulls have been growing in popularity for the past years, and there is no sign of catamarans stopping their conquest anytime soon.

Major brands known for their monohull production have now a dedicated line for multihulls. In this article, we compare the all-new Lagoon 46 and the Dufour shipyard’s first catamaran Dufour 48.

The popularity of catamarans can be explained by their stability, manoeuvrability and comfortable and spacious living areas. They are  great for chartering .In case you are unfamiliar about the two brands or the catamaran models in question, here’s a brief introduction.

Dufour is known for following new technologies and using innovative materials. A model of the Dufour Catamaran was revealed at Paris Boat Show 2017, the global launch at the Cannes 2019 in water boat show. It is designed by Umberto Felci and Lorenzo Giovannozzi. According to Michel Dufour: “We have developed this project with the vision to match an elegant and comfortable catamaran with outstanding sailing abilities.”

Lagoon is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of cruising catamarans. The brand values freedom and lifestyle, resulting in elegant and comfortable yachts. Designed by Nauta Design and Patrick le Quément, The Lagoon 46 represents innovation, freedom and courage – the fundamentals of the Lagoon brand. The global launch for the catamaran was in Düsseldorf boat show in January 2019.

DUFOUR 48   Specifications

Hull lenght.

14,20 m / 45’8″

DISPLACEMENT

dufour 46 catamaran

Dufour 48   Exterior

The Dufour catamaran has a contemporary design with voluminous hulls. The reversed and narrow bows cleave the water efficiently. The aft placed mast allows larger headsails, and the boom is more angled than in Dufour’s monohulls. The self-tacking jib (48 m2) combined with the mainsail (76 m2) creates a total sail area of 124 m2.

Dufour is famous for great comfort and outdoor living areas. The catamaran doesn’t fail, as it comes with a huge flybridge with stairs access from both starboard and port sides. At the back, there is a wide L-shaped sofa, and in front of the helm, you’ll find a double sunbed. The central helm station is compact with winches nearby. Visibility around the boat is excellent. Walking area too.

At the back of the boat, there are wide stairs from the water level on to the cockpit and side decks. The spacious layout gives the impression of a bigger catamaran. The cockpit is an extension of the living room – a lounge area to starboard and seating for eight to port. There are two options for dinghy lifting: standard davits or a hydraulic platform.

At the bow, there are two double sunbeds just in front of the coachroof. Additionally, there are two small trampoline sections just aft of the cross beam.

Lagoon46_1

Lagoon 46   Exterior

The Lagoon 46 is designed for uncompromised performance . The hulls are optimised for form and volume with vertical bows. Lagoon’s total sail area (140 m2) is slightly larger than Dufour’s, as is also the self-tacking jib (50 m2). The Lagoon 46 is also a bit more heavy than the Dufour. The mast is placed a bit further aft, and the foretriangle is larger than usual. This allows for more choices of headsails and ensures efficiency. FlatWinder mainsail track is placed on the roof.

The flybridge on the Lagoon has two functions with sunbeds and the helm station – a balance between comfort and steering . Compared to the single helm seat on Dufour 48, the Lagoon has wide sunbeds with adjustable backrests in two rows. While the steering wheel and the seat might be too far apart to drive while sitting down, they are too close for allowing walking past the helmsman. The winches are located on port side, which means one has to leave the steering position.

Lagoon’s one level cockpit at the back gives safe and easy access to the sea. The space is designed to accommodate up to 12 guests. There is a bench at the back and an eating area with an L-shaped sofa on the port side. The bench can be slid to the front to fold open the table. On starboard side, there is an outdoor galley and a lounge bench. There is also a large storage space against the saloon bulkhead. For hoisting the dinghy, here are also two options: single davit system or Tenderlift platform. At the front cockpit, there is a U-shaped lounge sofa and two trampolines.

dufour 48 interior

Dufour 48   Interior

The Dufour 48 has a 360-degree loft-style saloon connected to the cockpit. On the port side, you have fully equipped galley with lots of storage space at the back, an island in the middle and an adjustable L-shaped sofa in the front. At starboard front corner, there is an office space that functions as a navigation station . A plotter screen and autopilot controls make it possible to drive the boat from inside. Thanks to the sliding glass doors and large windows, you can enjoy plenty of natural light and fresh air .

What comes to accommodation, there is room for up to 12 overnight guests . You can choose between three to five cabins and up to five heads. The starboard hull has two cabins and heads as well as day head and a service room. It’s possible to transform it into a single bunk cabin. The cabins have own entrances that ensure privacy for guests. The port hull either has an owner’s cabin and a possible crew cabin or two double cabins mirrored to starboard hull. All the cabins have a lot of daylight coming in through many windows and hatches.

Lagoon 46 interior2

Lagoon 46   Interior

Similar to Dufour’s cat, The Lagoon 46 has also a 360-degree layout in the saloon. There is an U-shaped galley at port and an L-shaped sofa with dining table at starboard front corner, facing the aft cockpit. There is a navigation area on the port side front corner. The sliding glass doors and windows give lots of natural light and ventilation as well as enhance the flow between interior and exterior .

When it comes to the layout of the Lagoon cat, you can choose between three or four cabins . The front and aft cabins are identical and always with separate heads and showers en suite. The combination of functionality and elegant finish gives you an impression of a luxury hotel room . The cabins are very spacious and comfortable, thanks to the specially formed hulls with extra width above the waterline. With the 4-cabin version, it’s possible to have crew cabins in both bows.
