Description

Introducing PUNGA, a meticulously maintained 1998 Dufour Classic 45 cruiser, perfect for blue water adventures and coastal cruising. This 45-foot yacht boasts a sleek white fiberglass hull, non-slip deck, and a reliable Volvo Penta MD22P engine with only 2000 hours of use.

Equipped with modern navigation aids, including Raymarine chart plotters, autopilot, AIS, and a Hydrovane self-steering system, PUNGA is ready to take you on your next journey with confidence. On deck, enjoy the convenience of electric windlass, sprayhood, Bimini top, deck shower, and a Blue Sunbrella Isinglass enclosure. Anchoring is a breeze with a Delta anchor, Plow anchor, and Para anchor, while 6 fenders and mooring warps ensure safe docking. For leisure, the yacht includes a West Marine PHP 310 inflatable tender with a Mercury 5hp outboard engine and a Decathlon paddleboard.

The spacious interior features 3 double cabins, a saloon berth, 2 heads (electric and manual), and a comfortable navigation desk. With medium wood joinery, fabric upholstery, and 6’3” headroom, the living space is both functional and inviting. The galley is fully equipped with a 2-burner stove, oven, BBQ grill, stainless steel sink, and a 12V fridge with an Isotherm ASU icebox.

Safety is paramount with 3 fire extinguishers, 8 life jackets, 5 electric bilge pumps, 3 manual bilge pumps, an EPIRB, radar reflector, and a MOB system. PUNGA’s standing rigging was replaced in 2020, and the sails include a storm jib (2022) and an asymmetrical spinnaker, ensuring optimal performance on the water.

Currently ashore at A& J Baldacchino Boat Yard in Malta, PUNGA is ready for her next adventure. With a proven cruising history from Florida to the Mediterranean, this yacht is ideal for sailors seeking comfort, reliability, and performance.
