The Dufour 36E Performance is a simply stunning design, awarded European Yacht of the Year in 2013. The Dufour 36E Performance features eye-catching contemporary styling with a chined hull, a cleverly designed and impressively comfortable two-cabin leather upholstered interior with expansive light-filled spaces, a highly efficient twin wheeled teak cockpit and exciting performance to match. Quality hull construction provides optimal strength and durability. Maintained in superb condition and with low engine hours on her regularly serviced 30hp Volvo Penta diesel, this 2012 launched Dufour 36E is a quality offering from 38 South Yacht Sales.
This stylish dual purpose yacht can be cruised with family and friends in comfort but has some performance upgrades such as jib in-haulers, masthead spinnaker halyard, adjustable backstay to give her that competitive edge on the club race course. She is equipped with twin wheel steering and a generous sized teak floored cockpit that can be easily reconfigured to suit cruising or racing modes. The Dufour 36E is supremely easy and rewarding to sail with quality sails including symmetric spinnakers with pole or asymmetric spinnakers flown from her retractable sprit. Her standing rigging was replaced in 2023. The electronics suite includes a Raymarine multi-function touch screen with GPS and plotter plus Raymarine i70 Log, Speed, Wind and Depth instruments, a VHF radio, a powerful autopilot and an AIS Transceiver.
Below decks she is a revelation with clever utilization of space for a yacht of her size. Appointed to Dufour's outstanding level of quality, she features a generous forward double berth with a custom made mattress for optimal sleeping comfort, a double berth aft cabin to port plus two settee berths with lee sheets. There's a central drop-side table, a fully enclosed toilet and shower with a large sail or equipment storage locker aft, accessible from the shower or direct from the cockpit. She has a comprehensively equipped galley with gas stove, oven and refrigeration and a generously proportioned chart table with navigators seat. Light, bright and airy, her many hatches and ports provide wonderful light and ventilation to enhance the quality fitments and there is an abundance of storage space throughout.
Above or below decks, this is a yacht you will love to sail and enjoy with family and friends. This lovely Dufour 36E Performance is nicely presented for sale and inspection will not disappoint.
