(2014) can accommodate up to 10 people in 5 cabins and it has 2 toilets. The overall length of the boat is 49 ft / 14,8 m. The main equipment (find the complete list on the ’Equipments’ tab): air condition, stand up paddle (sup) and it’s obligatory extras: standard charter pack. The main sail is half batten. You can check-in from 18:00 h and check-out until 08:00 h.
Why charter this Dufour 500 GL - 5 cab.
5 cabins for 10 berths means about 2 guests per cabin, so bag storage and sleeping turns are clear before departure. 5 guests per head matters on early marina mornings, when showers, breakfast and casting off compete for time. At 14,8 m, this sailing yacht works best when swim stops still leave time for the evening berth.
Best charter fit
Dufour 500 GL - 5 cab. suits crews comparing cabin separation, luggage storage and bathroom timing across 5 cabins and 2 heads. Sailing crews should keep one fallback leg for wind shifts, late sea state and the final marina return.
Capri, Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast from Castellammare
Castellammare sits on the Sorrento side of the bay, under Vesuvius and already halfway to Capri and the Amalfi shore, so there is no crossing back to the city: the run is south from the start, and the choice is Capri and the Sorrento cliffs first, or straight along the Amalfi coast. If the handover leaves daylight, the sheltered Sorrento anchorages are the natural first anchorage, with the Capri hop best taken early, ahead of the tripper boats and the midday wind. The transfer runs from Naples (NAP) in 40–60 minutes by road, or from Salerno (QSR) about the same. Capri and the Sorrento shore lie an hour or two apart under sail, while the Amalfi anchorages are open and crowded, so time the way home to pass back under the peninsula in calm water.
