Why charter this Dufour 310 GL
2 cabins for 4 berths means about 2 guests per cabin, so bag storage and sleeping turns are clear before departure. 4 guests per head matters on early marina mornings, when showers, breakfast and casting off compete for time. At 9,7 m, this sailing yacht suits short hops and small berths, but chop makes the ride wetter sooner.
Best charter fit
Dufour 310 GL suits crews comparing cabin separation, luggage storage and bathroom timing across 2 cabins. Sailing crews should keep one fallback leg for wind shifts, late sea state and the final marina return.
Ré, Oléron and the Pertuis from La Rochelle
La Rochelle is Atlantic sailing, which means the tide, not the mileage or the handover hour, sets the day: the marina sits behind a tidal gate, and the Pertuis d’Antioche between the low islands of Ré and Oléron dries to sandbanks at the edges, so every leg is planned to the tables. La Rochelle-Île de Ré Airport (LRH) is the local gateway, with Nantes (NTE) the longer drive. The first anchorage is simply whichever the tide opens after handover, a short hop to Ré or Île d’Aix. Île de Ré, Île d’Aix and the Oléron shore are a week of tide-worked legs, past whitewashed villages and hollyhocks, the crossings set around the flood and ebb.
