About this charter

Spanning 42.2 metres with a beam exceeding 15 metres, Douce France is one of the world's most distinguished luxury sailing catamarans. Built by French yard Alu Marine, her aluminium construction and expansive twin hulls provide remarkable stability and vast deck areas, allowing her to cruise effortlessly under 5,600 square feet of sail across New Zealand and Pacific archipelagos. The interior displays timeless refinement, featuring rich mahogany and rosewood joinery paired with pale sycamore panelling. A spacious deckhouse lounge provides 360-degree views, complemented by a dedicated 250-bottle wine cellar curated to accompany fine dining. Up to twelve guests are accommodated across six identical, air-conditioned en-suite staterooms, each furnished with convertible queen berths that readily convert into twin configurations. Outdoor living is spread across three distinct alfresco dining setups, including a protected cockpit beneath the coachroof overhang and an expansive aft teak deck. The yacht operates with a crew of seven, including a certified diving instructor. Water access is supported by a fold-away stairway, two tenders, Laser sailing dinghies, scuba diving gear, and sea scooters.
