All about Dufour 36 model
The Dufour shipyards in Rochelais, France are synonymous with well-finished cruising yachts and derive part of their history from their owner's passion for sailing. Certain models of sailboats come and go from a shipyard's range when they are very successful.
This is the case with the Dufour 36, which includes two versions: The 1998 Dufour 36 Classic and the 2012 Dufour 36 Performance.
The Dufour 36 Classic is a family cruising yacht launched in 1997 and produced until 2004. It has an upwind sail area of 69m2 assisted by a 29hp engine, measures 11.05m long and 3.77m wide, is available in three draughts (PTE, GTE and lifting keel) and is equipped with a central steering wheel. Three layout types are featured in the catalogue, a 2-cabin version and a 3-cabin version, and an optional forward bathroom. The galley on the port side faces the L-shaped saloon on the starboard side.
Launched in 2012, the Dufour 36 Performance was replaced in 2019 by the Dufour 360 and belongs to the new generation of Dufour: the Del Pardo era. The Italians, who owned Dufour at the time, breathed new style into the history of the brand. The Dufour 36 Performance won the title of 2013 European Boat of the Year in the "Performance Cruiser" category. Wider stern, straight bow, double steering wheels: it brings together all the current trends in sailboat design. This lightweight cruiser with a large draught knows how to be sporty (70m2 upwind sail area) but never at the expense of comfort.
