Layout & Accommodations

Configured in the highly practical 3-cabin / 2-head layout with two dry heads and a separate aft shower, SEABREEZE SMILE offers a superior arrangement for both private use and charter operations, as clearly illustrated in the vessel’s layout plan.

  • Excellent storage and ventilation

  • Direct access to the aft facilities

Heads & Shower Arrangement:

  • Two separate dry heads (toilets) for everyday comfort and flexibility

  • Aft head capable of being used as a wet head with integrated shower

  • Dedicated shower compartment, separate from the heads, offering excellent flexibility as either a shower space or practical storage for wet-weather gear, sails, snorkel equipment, and island cruising essentials

This arrangement keeps moisture and gear contained away from the main living spaces while providing a highly adaptable setup for active cruising and island sailing.

Salon & Galley

The long galley configuration is both practical underway and ideal for entertaining:

  • Linear galley with excellent counter space

  • Refrigerator and freezer

  • Microwave and oven

  • Coffee machine

  • Generous storage throughout

The saloon seating converts easily for additional lounging or dining and benefits from excellent airflow and visibility.

Designed around outdoor living, the Dufour 41 cockpit is among the most spacious in her class:

  • Twin helm stations with clear sightlines

  • Bimini and sprayhood for sun protection

  • Cockpit table with integrated refrigerator

  • Cockpit shower

  • Electric anchor windlass

  • Synthetic teak cockpit flooring

Wide side decks and a well‑protected cockpit make SEABREEZE SMILE easy and safe to move around, whether under sail or at anchor.

Sailing & Handling

The Dufour 41 is known for being responsive, forgiving, and easy to handle short-handed, and SEABREEZE SMILE is further enhanced by her shoal draft keel, making her particularly well suited to Caribbean and island cruising.

  • Volvo 60 HP diesel engine with saildrive

  • Bow thruster for confident close-quarters maneuvering

  • Shoal draft keel – ideal for accessing shallow anchorages and island harbors
