This DeFever 44 is bound to catch the eye of anyone looking for a reliable, comfortable, and capable cruiser—especially if you’re dreaming of long-range adventures or living aboard internationally. Designed by Arthur DeFever, a legend in the trawler world, this 44-foot flybridge motor yacht was his most popular model for good reason. It’s built tough with a solid fiberglass hull, a deep keel, and sturdy struts protecting the running gear, making it a seaworthy choice for tackling coastal waters. The displacement hull—steady and fuel-efficient—means you’re not burning through diesel like some lighter boats. You get a generous salon with a galley-up design—perfect for keeping the cook in the conversation—plus a full-beam master stateroom aft with a queen berth, ensuite head, and enough storage to settle in for months. The forward guest cabin has a V-berth for visitors, and the walk-in engine room is a mechanic’s dream—near stand-up headroom for easy maintenance. Add in the flybridge with its commanding views and roomy aft deck for lounging or entertaining, and you’ve got a boat that feels like a floating home without skimping on practicality. Owners love the walk-around decks for easy handling and the tender setup. For someone who values durability, comfort, and the freedom to roam, don’t let this one pass you by! This boat is owned by a US corporation and registered in Poland.
The RYA Training Centre is an integral part of DOSC, providing sailing lessons for everyone - no matter their age, no matter their ability. DOSC has been affiliated with the RYA since 1998, trains over 5000 students yearly, and runs more than 1000 courses every year. We have a dedicated instructor team who, in line with the RYA, deliver high quality sailing courses with the focus of every session to improve the students sailing ability, and develop a love for sailing and the marine environment. We run the 'Learn to Sail' Program for the youth, which is split into Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. The beginner course takes you through RYA Stage 1&2, bringing you to a point where you can sail a boat under supervision. RYA Stage 3&4 is the basis of the intermediate course, introducing bigger boats, and more technical skills. Once completed, you will be sail confidently alone, and rent a boat to be able to enjoy sailing on your own time. The last of the Learn to Sail course is Advanced, which looks at the RYA Advanced modules, and is designed as a development course. This means there is no specific completion point, as it will continue to develop and improve upon skills. It also introduces new skills, such as spinnakers & racing, and uses a variety of boats.
