Any experience with Dufour sailboats?


I was curious if anyone has had any experience either on or with Dufour sailboats? In the recent issue of Latitudes and Attitudes, there is an article about a 1974 Dufour, 35' long, that is sailed as a bluewater cruiser with great success. When looking at Dufour sailboats online that are for sale, the price is definately less than other bluewater cruisers in the same category, although there doesn't seem to be as much fancy woodwork inside the cabin. As long as the boat is still bluewater worthy, it's not a bad option if one doesn't need anything fancy. Just wanted to know if anyone has an opinion on this manufacture. Thanks in advance.

here is an excellent article on the older dufour sailboats

from the article

"I confess that the Arpege 30, which was introduced in 1966 and had a fairly long production run of approximately 1,500 boats, had fallen off my personal radar screen of sailboats until two recent and far-flung trips. Last April I was in Oakland, California, attending the Pacific Sail Expo when, weary of the hype and hoopla of the show, I was out wandering, and I came across an Arpege 30 at a nearby dock, where it had been temporarily displaced from her usual berth by the show’s shiny new models. “I wouldn’t trade this boat for any one of those over there,” said a bearded man in the cockpit, sipping coffee and gesturing toward the flapping banners. “I’ve been out to Hawaii and down to Mexico more times than I can count. This boat never lets me down.” I pride myself on my knowledge of sailboats, and while I recognized the boat as an old Dufour, I couldn’t quite place the model. “It’s an Arpege 30,” the man said helpfully, “built in ‘68, and still going strong.”

i had a chance to inspect a dufour 34' sail boat about 14 years ago when i was looking for a live aboard sailboat, i was very impressed by the boat, it seemed very sea worthy with excellent sea births and crusing layout below, but we ended up purchasing a columbia 9.6 instead mainly because of lower price.

hope this helps

Buying a new or used boat

Which do you go for a new boat is all nice and shiny has a guarantee which is wait of your mind. But the costs are for more then buying a used a boat.

If you'd prefer to save some money and buy a boat whose value will not drop so sharply, then buying a used boat is the sensible choice to make. The rest of this article is devoted to tips on buying used boats.

If you buy a used boat from a private seller then there will be no guarantee so you will need to check it out first to avoid making costly mistakes. Buying from a dealer is another good way of buying a used boat, most dealerships offer a limited guarantee this will ad some peace of mind.

Also ask why the boat is being sold it can give you some clues on why the boat is being sold. Has it been looked after,is the owner trustworthy . these are things you should consider when buying a used boat.

Where to find used boats and dealerships, of course this is up to you where you want to look. There are many boats for sale across the internet this should supply you with enough information on looking for boats.

For companies or schools building campuses, a quick and easy alternative is to go into the OpenSim console and type:

SET TERRAIN FILL 21

This gives you a completely flat region, all one meter above water level. You can quickly create water features by lowering land slightly just where you need them.

Otherwise, leave everything else flat. This makes it very easy to put down buildings and move them around, and create and move paths, roads and other landscape features.

Building on a slope is always challenging — there's a reason real-world construction companies usually start by leveling the area where they're going to build!

Having a flat terrain also makes it easy to join regions together — you never have to worry about edges not lining up right.

Land is cheap in OpenSim, so could create beaches on the sides of otherwise-empty water regions and just drop them in whenever you need them. If someone hasn't created these OAR files yet, I might give this a shot… you'd need four with land on one side, four with land on two adjacent sides, and two with land on opposite sides, four with land on three sides, and one with land on all four sides…

Then add crashing waves, some rocks, fish, sailing boats and a lighthouse…

Mmmmmm….
