Description
Step aboard "FALCON" a Dufour 40 Performance a 2004 Seattle boat show boat of the year.
This is aboat designed and built by sailors for sailors. She is a high quality, fast racer cruiser that will
turn heads in any harbor. With a beautiful interior in African mahogany with teak and holly
flooring, a V berth in the forepeak, as well as a double aft staterooms, an owner’s private head
and a guest head, it comfortably accommodates six guests. L shaped galley to port with a
gimballed stove with oven, center line double sink with a foot operated saltwater pump for
long offshore cruises. She is easily sailed by one person or a couple. Rare find on the West Coast
for this beautiful one owner French built yacht. A must-see!
The Dufour 40 is a design by Umberto Felci with the interior and deck designed by Patrick
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.
The hull features short ends and a wide beam aft. Carrying that beam aft adds stability and
sailing length, but more importantly, makes for more interior volume aft.
