Majestically elegant, merging contemporary and timeless style, the Dufour 460 embodies all the beauty of the Dufour signature.

It’s an authentic pure-blood in both aesthetics and performance with its hull line and pronounced bilges. Both rounded and fluid, the deck shapes leave room for a huge cockpit and wide side decks for optimum movement.

Inside, a vast lounge with front galley gives it a yacht feel.

The Dufour 460 is the gold standard and sure to become legendary.

Tahiti—Updates from Paradise

By Zuzana Prochaska

I’ve been to Tahiti seven times—six on charter and once as crew for a couple of yachties. Over the 25 years that I’ve been visiting, it’s changed dramatically. Yet, inexplicably, it has also stayed the same.

Lounging on the flybridge of our Sunsail 454, I had time to think about this dichotomy as I toasted the nighttime skies of Bora Bora and specifically the Southern Cross, a constellation that never fails to hypnotize. As the Crosby, Stills & Nash (1982) tune reminds us:
