Cruiser-Racer

This Dufour 40E has been fully offshore prepared for Newport-Bermuda Race, large compliment of offshore equipment, extensive sail inventory. The open cockpit and twin wheel set up are ideal for racing or cruising, a rare find in this price range. 

The target set for architect Umberto Felci and the Dufour Yachts Design Office was to come up with something even better than the Dufour 40. What a challenge! And they more than came up with the goods! Its many qualities speak for themselves: finesse, precision, exciting sailing. Take a look at: cruising/racing deck layout, suitable for sailing with a full or reduced crew, out on the open sea or between two buoys; below decks, the refinement and quality of Dufour Yachts’ interiors. All adding up to a fast boat for racing or just for the pleasure of skimming through the water; which at the same time lets you enjoy proper cruising in comfort.
