Dufour 40 PERFORMANCE

XBOAT ref:6264.
The owner tells us:

I am selling my DUFOUR 40 PERFORMANCE purchased in 2021, with which I navigated in the Mediterranean before preparing it for an Atlantic crossing in 2024 (Arc Antillais). Currently back in mainland France, it is stored ashore and ready to sail again after minor cosmetic and electrical work (antenna cable and anchoring lights to be serviced).
It is a 2-cabin deep keel version with an enlarged forward cabin bed, a large separate shower from the WC, and a WEEBASTO forced air heating system.
Its standing rigging was replaced in 2018, and its DCX sails date from 2021.
It is energy self-sufficient (4 x 400W solar panels with VICTRON ENERGY MPPT regulator) and equipped with 3 x 110 Ah service batteries from 2024 and a 90 Ah engine battery.
My Dufour 40 PERFORMANCE is prepared for long-distance cruising with a complete onboard electronics package (RAYMARINE navigation central, marinized PC with remote screen on a pivoting arm and OPEN CPN, EPIRB 2024, AIS Black Box transmitter/receiver 800S/N, FURUNO NX300 Navtex, TRANSOCEAN 6-person life raft 2023, 100m main anchor rode...)

The Dufour 40, launched in the early 2000s, embodies the blend of performance and comfort, as claimed by the La Rochelle shipyard. The first of the new Dufour range, it quickly gained popularity among sailors and racers, winning the title of "Boat of the Year 2003." Designed by the Franco-Italian duo Umberto Felci (hull) and Patrick Roséo (deck and interiors), this nearly 12-meter monohull appeals to both cruising enthusiasts and racing passionate.
