The 4 cabin’s bareboat sailing yacht Dufour 430 was built in 2023 and it is docked in Split, Croatia. The Dufour 430 (2023) can accommodate up to 8 people in 4 cabins and it has 2 toilets. The overall length of the boat is 43 ft / 13,2 m. The main equipment (find the complete list on the ’Equipments’ tab): swimming ladder, cockpit table, air condition, stand up paddle (sup), grill (barbecue) and it’s obligatory extras: . The main sail is furling/roll. You can check-in from 17:00 h and check-out until 09:00 h.
Why charter this Dufour 430
4 cabins for 8 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 13,2 m, this sailing yacht works best when swim stops still leave time for the evening berth.
Best charter fit
Dufour 430 suits crews comparing cabin separation, luggage storage and bathroom timing across 4 cabins and 2 heads. Sailing crews should keep one fallback leg for wind shifts, late sea state and the final marina return.
Brač, Šolta and Hvar from Split
Split is a major Dalmatian charter base, with the marina tucked right under the walls of Diocletian’s Palace in the old city. Split Airport (SPU) is a 25–45-minute road transfer; Zadar (ZAD) is a longer drive that suits some flight times. First call is usually Maslinica on Šolta or Milna on Brač, though a late finish makes it easier to stay by the base and slip out in the morning. Brač, Šolta and Hvar link on sheltered channels rarely more than ten miles across, an easy week, and the choice is how much Hvar bustle to trade for Šolta quiet. Vis and Korčula lie further out on more open legs, so time an earlier turnaround and keep the last day short; going that far, with exposed crossings out and back, needs more time than a week.
