Dufour 382 Grand Large Buyer's Guide
Shopping the brokerage market for a Dufour 382 Grand Large means weighing a 2014-onward Grand Large cruiser whose six interior layouts and documented structure make it a sensible used buy. Ex-charter examples are common, so condition and layout choice deserve attention before purchase.
Layouts on the Used Market
Owner three-cabin layouts are the more common on the used market, but both two- and three-cabin versions are available. The boat was offered with six interior layout options from new, letting owners choose two or three cabins, one or two heads, a smaller or larger nav station, and an L-shaped or in-line galley. In the two-cabin model, guest accommodations are aft to starboard with a large lazarette to port behind the shower stall. A forward master suite with V-berth sits behind a double door, and the saloon table folds out to seat six.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
On the used market, a bimini, chartplotter, cockpit shower, and self-tacking jib are commonly fitted. Swim platform, solar, autopilot, heating, and furling main are often seen. Less common but possible are teak decks, lithium batteries, dodger, AIS, life raft, and bow thruster as owner upgrades. From the build standard, the boat comes with twin wheels, Lewmar primary winches, a teak-slatted cockpit, and a drop-leaf cockpit table; an integrated stainless steel/composite bowsprit was an option, with a traditional offset bow roller as standard. A 30hp Volvo Penta diesel is standard, though some boats carry the optional 40hp.
What to Inspect
The one documented issue to check is that the double lifelines are lower than ideal. Verify their condition and any owner-raised modifications. Otherwise, review the resin-injected deck's smooth lower surface for any undocumented alteration, and confirm the integral grid and L-shaped keel with bulb and backing plates are intact. The hull is hand-laid polyester with blister-resistant outer layer; inspect for blistering.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
These boats typically appear in Croatia, France, Spain, the United States, the Virgin Islands, British, and Canada. When viewing, check layout matches your plan, confirm lifeline height and any upgrade tier, and verify engine hours and tank condition below the aft bunks.
- Decide two- vs three-cabin need
- Inspect lifelines and any raised modifications
- Confirm standard vs optional bow and engine
- Check for commonly fitted or owner-upgrade gear
