The Dufour 34 E Performance was the very first in the Dufour Performance range.
It retains the hull and sail plan of its forerunner, the highly successful 34.
Its list of accolades says it all:
- Named “Yacht of the year 2003” in France;
- Winner of the “Copa del Rey” in 2004, the “Spi Ouest France” 2008 across all classes, and the “Voiles de Saint Tropez” 2009.
And we’ve lost count of all its honourable placings, like in the Fastnet Race, for example.
You could call this the very definition of a cruising racer…
E for evolution: a more roomy cockpit with large opening aft, lightening the boat, and the completely redesigned cabin and internal fittings make this a whole new boat — even more enjoyable and better-performing, yet still just as seaworthy.
