The 4 cabin’s bareboat sailing yacht Dufour 430 GL was built in 2019 and it is docked in Sukosan, Croatia. The Dufour 430 GL (2019) 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): air condition, stand up paddle (sup) and it’s obligatory extras: wifi gratis on boat, charter package. The main sail is furling/roll. You can check-in from 17:00 h and check-out until 08:30 h.
Why charter this Dufour 430 GL
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 GL 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.
The Zadar channels and the Kornati from Sukošan
Sukošan’s draw is logistics: the marina here is one of the biggest on the Adriatic, so a crew can store ship and be clear of the dock inside an hour of the handover. From the pontoon it is a short reach to the coves of Ugljan, an unhurried first afternoon unless the bora is blowing, with a late finish easily held at the berth. The natural line of the week is south-west down the inside of Ugljan and Pašman to the Telašćica bight on Dugi Otok, half-day legs the whole way and rarely a mile of open water. Zadar Airport (ZAD) is the nearest on the coast, 15–25 minutes by road. The Kornati park itself, reached by one exposed crossing that wants fair weather and carries an entry fee, sits best around mid-week. Push out to the far chain and the ocean cliffs beyond and the sailing turns properly offshore.
