Dufour 382 Grand Large yacht charter in Marseille
The Dufour 382 Grand Large makes a useful middle ground for Marseille: room to gather around a cockpit table, a genuine sailing feel and cabin space for an unhurried coastal stay.
A little more space around the shared table
At 11.25 metres long and 3.85 metres wide in the published broker specification, the 382 sits between the more compact 360 and the larger 430. Its twin wheels occupy the stern quarters, with the cockpit seating forward. Guests can converse beside the table while remaining within sight of the skipper and sails.

A little more space around the shared table
The regional reference carries three cabins and one bathroom. That is an arrangement to assess against the people travelling: couples may value separate sleeping spaces, while a family may put more emphasis on a straightforward shared bathroom and the saloon. Day guests will usually experience the cockpit much more than the accommodation below.
Build the charter around time under sail
The Marseille bay gives a sailing party a rewarding outlook before any distant destination is involved. A course towards suitable waters around the islands can be varied according to the wind, with a pause when the group wants a meal or a rest. The pleasure comes from the passage as well as the stopping place.
For an overnight programme, agree the intended rhythm rather than filling every day with a long transfer. Provisioning, access ashore and time to dry swimming gear all become part of life aboard. A modest first leg leaves room to become comfortable with the yacht and the skipper’s routine.
A clear comparison with the newer 390
The 382 Grand Large and Dufour 390 are separate designs. The 390 has a broader published beam and different accommodation options, so photographs and cabin plans provide a better comparison than the similar model numbers alone. Choose the arrangement that supports the people and duration.
Send the 382 preference with your Marseille dates and whether the trip is a day or a longer stay. We will seek the model or a comparable verified monohull, with the actual layout, departure and inclusions stated in the proposal.
Departure questions to settle
Is the 382 another name for the Dufour 390?
No. They are different model families. The yacht’s model year, photographs and interior plan distinguish the individual alternatives.
