About Deerfoot Yachts
Pioneering Offshore Performance
Deerfoot Yachts were conceived by renowned designer Steve Dashew, who set out to redefine what was possible in long-range cruising. Built from the early 1980s onward in collaboration with select international shipyards, Deerfoot models earned a reputation for serious offshore performance and ocean-crossing reliability
Purpose-Built for Bluewater Cruising
Each Deerfoot yacht is designed around the needs of experienced sailors seeking comfort and safety at sea. The designs prioritize speed, seaworthiness, and minimal crew handling—combining fine-entry hulls, generous waterlines, and efficient sail plans to optimize long-distance passages.
Notable Builds and Global Voyages
Models such as the Deerfoot 61 and 74 have become icons among global cruisers, with many completing transoceanic voyages and circumnavigations. These yachts are favored by owner-operators who value practical layouts and strong build quality.
Innovative Design, Timeless Appeal
Deerfoot’s narrow-beam hulls, lightweight construction, and functional interiors were ahead of their time. Their commitment to efficiency, safety, and simplicity continues to influence modern cruising yacht design, making Deerfoot yachts enduringly relevant for today’s passagemakers.
