Roseo. Construction is French. Dufour 40 is a proven offshore performance cruiser with high

placings in races over the years such as Fastnet, Annapolis to Bermuda, North Sea Race. At the

same time, she is a very comfortable, safe and easily handled for family vacations. All lines lead

aft, including the reefing lines, making sail handling very easy. The main sheet is at the end of

the boom with a traveler almost as wide as the boat. She is a very light feeling boat, easily

matching the wind speed up to 7-8 knots. SA/D 19.3.

sailing length, but more importantly, makes for more interior volume aft.
