Description

Dufour 31 now in the online auction. Anyone can bid until November 19, 2024

The 1979 Dufour 31 is a classic polyester sailing yacht with a length of 9.95 meters and a width of 3.20 meters, designed for comfortable pleasure cruising and vacations on both inland waterways and at sea. The boat has a draft of 1.75 meters and offers sleeping capacity for up to six people, including two fixed berths and four extra. Although the boat is complete and in reasonable condition, there are some minor defects, including lines in need of replacement.

The boat has always been maintained and recently received a new paint system. In 2023, the boat underwent an antifouling treatment, and is currently on shore, ready for viewing. The engine, a reliable two-cylinder Volvo diesel engine, is working and is electrically started. The engine is equipped with a 65-liter fuel tank. Various navigation equipment is provided, including a compass, depth sounder, VHF radio and log speedometer.

The rigging consists of an aluminum mast and five sails in fair condition, including a mainsail, genoa, and storm jib. There are also two smaller genuas that can be adapted as a jib if desired. The steering is located outside and is operated by a steering wheel, and the boat has a single rudder system.

The boat also has various equipment such as an anchor with chain and line attachment, pulpit and stern chairs, and a swim ladder. For sanitation, there is a manual toilet, whose drain discharges directly into the open water. This Dufour 31 is a dated but charming and complete boat, ideal for the sailor who enjoys both leisurely day trips and multi-day trips on the water.

I found it challenging to identify three weak points for this boat. It is robust and constructed from solid materials, ensuring both safety and comfort. The boat features ample storage space and a spacious, inviting saloon. Whether you're coastal cruising or venturing offshore, this sailboat excels, enabling truly memorable voyages. It is a true friend.

Barca comoda cammina anche con poco vento motore tranquillo consuma poco e arriva a 6 kn. Interno molto spazioso e confortevole termicamente isolata pozzetto spazioso e comodissimo struttura solida manovrabilità semplice in tutte le andature assolutamente consigliabile se si trova in buone condizioni . In 4/5 si possono fare ottime traversate , unico handicap un solo bagno , ma superabile

Barco muy seguro, con un gran diseño que soporta muy bien el paso del tiempo, y una gran estabilidad en condiciones dificiles.
