Four yachts for City Dock
Dufour has confirmed four sailing yachts for the Annapolis Sailboat Show from 15 to 18 October 2026. Its official event programme lists the Dufour 41, 44, 48 and 54 at the floating pontoons of Annapolis City Dock.
All four meet Luxury Yacht Guide's 12.00–23.99-metre editorial remit. The programme gives prospective owners an opportunity to examine different scales of cruising yacht from a single builder rather than relying only on brochure comparisons.
The manufacturer and its dealer network are due to attend the exhibition to discuss specifications and ownership plans. This is an announced display for an upcoming event, not a claim that all four yachts have already been inspected in Annapolis.
From Dufour 41 to Dufour 44
LYG records the Dufour 41 at 12.75 metres overall and the 44 at 13.91 metres. Both offer different choices for owners who expect to sail with family and friends, although their individual cabin layouts should be confirmed.
The 44's inclusion provides a point of comparison with the smaller 41 in the same exhibition. An in-person review should look at movement around the cockpit, use of the aft platform and usable space below decks.
An official Dufour 44 model photograph accompanies this report. It identifies a confirmed model in the display rather than substituting an unrelated sailing image.
The larger 48 and 54
The Dufour 48 and Dufour 54 complete the announced Annapolis group. In the LYG database they measure 15.29 and 16.84 metres respectively, still beneath the 24-metre boundary.
The extra length offers a different scale for interior accommodation and deck arrangements, but a buyer should assess the exact configuration aboard. A stated model range alone cannot establish a particular yacht's inventory or delivery date.
Comparing all four at one show makes it possible to test whether more space is genuinely useful for the intended crew. Helm ergonomics and access between deck and interior remain central practical questions.
Appointments ahead of October
Dufour identifies Annapolis City Dock as the event location and offers appointments through its official website. The four-day event is scheduled to run from Thursday 15 October to Sunday 18 October.
LYG has separately covered the brand's Genoa programme, which has a different yacht list and earlier dates. This report concerns the manufacturer-confirmed Annapolis display and should be checked against any last-minute changes.
