The 4 cabin’s bareboat sailing yacht Dufour 430 GL was built in 2020 and it is docked in St Martin, Caribbean. The Dufour 430 GL (2020) 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): bimini top, freezer, swimming ladder, dinghy, electric anchor windlass, cockpit table, inverter, GPS chart plotter, autopilot, bathing platform and it’s obligatory extras: essentials pack, handling fees, starter pack, final cleaning, nature reserve tax. You can check-in from 17:00 h and check-out until 10:00 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. Choose it for short hops or swim stops where boarding access, seating and deck storage matter more than sail handling.
Anguilla and St Barth from St Martin
St Martin is a two-nation, duty-free crossroads, French in the north and Dutch in the south, within an easy reach of both chic St Barth and low, beach-ringed Anguilla. The first move can hinge on the marina: boats based in the Simpson Bay lagoon leave through a bridge that opens only at set times, so the first day is planned around it, while from outside the lagoon Grand Case, Pinel or Tintamarre are an easy start. Princess Juliana Airport (SXM) is a short drive from the base. A week is island-hopping rather than long passages, but St Barth and Anguilla are each a separate customs clearance, so time those crossings and the run back. Volcanic Saba and the farther offshore islands are the longer reaches, better kept for a longer trip.
