Broker's Comments

The Dufour is a spacious modern styled family cruising yacht with high freeboard, offering very good accommodation for her size. The design is typical of French yachts of the period, with quite a high-volume hull and a smart interior finish. In their day these yachts were well ahead of comparable British products in design, space, and perhaps even performance terms, but time marches on and now this one is in need of some TLC. Perhaps a 'deep clean' and re-rig will sort out ninety percent of her ailments, but her asking price reflects this.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
