Broker's Comments

This is an early version of the Dufour 34 which has stood the test of time well. She is solidly built and well fitted out.

Having not been aboard a Dufour 34 for a few years I was surprised by her spacious, light filled saloon which would provide a great living space for longer trips away.

So if you are looking for a yacht that has proved herself cruising in the Med as well as the cooler climes of Northen Europe, she is well worth coming to view.

These boat details are subject to contract. Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.

This Dufour 34 has been personally photographed and viewed by Chris of Boatshed Cornwall. Click here for contact details.
