<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?><span><p></p><h5></h5><p>Design and Reputation</p>
<p>The Dufour 32 Classic, built by Dufour Yachts, is a well-regarded family cruiser that is often compared favourably with yachts such as the Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 32 and Beneteau Oceanis 311. She combines sensible performance with good seakeeping, while her clean lines and practical layout continue to appeal to cruising sailors.</p>
<p>Hull, Keel, and Sailing</p>
<p>This example is fitted with a shoal keel, giving a draft of 1.25 metres. As a result, she is particularly well suited to coastal cruising, drying harbours, and exploring areas such as the Scilly Isles. Under sail, the Dufour 32 Classic is known for being balanced, predictable, and easy to handle.</p>
<p>Accommodation and Use</p>
<p>Below deck, the layout is practical and comfortable for family cruising or weekends aboard. The design makes good use of space, offering a welcoming interior that works well for short breaks or longer coastal trips.</p>
<p>Location and Mooring</p>
<p>A mooring on the Percuil River may also be available, which adds further appeal for buyers looking to base the yacht locally.</p>
<p>Manufacturer Provided Description<br>
The Dufour 32 Classic is a real cruising yacht, strong, fast and comfortable developed by Dufour from a J & J Design. Her lines, with a well-balanced hull make her an elegant performer. The wide side decks make it easy for the crew to manouver and circulate. Her ergonomic cockpit, careful selection of high-quality deck fittings and rigging and Dufour's customized boat building flair are all evident in the 32 Classic. And Classic describes the attention to detail and superior solid mahogany wood work found throughout the interior, crafted in an ageless design and unequalled in any yacht of similar size or class.</p>
<p>Accommodation</p>
<p>The accommodation offers six berths in two double sleeping cabins plus the saloon, with good standing headroom throughout.</p>
<p>FORECABIN - Fitted with a double V berth with infill, stowage, lockers, and opening hatch to the foredeck.</p>
<p>SALOON - The saloon has settee berths either side of a central dining table (with folding leaves and storage), with good stowage provided by a range of shelves, cupboards, and lockers. Good natural light and ventilation is provided by two large windows and an opening hatch to the deck.</p>
<p>GALLEY - The L-shaped galley aft to port is equipped with a gimballed Eno 2-burner gas cooker with oven, fridge, stainless steel sink, and storage.</p>
<p>CHART TABLE - A large forward-facing chart table is located to starboard, with working space for chartwork, instrumentation, storage, and an electrical distribution panel.</p>
<p>HEADS - Located aft to starboard is a generous heads with Jabsco marine toilet, shower, washbasin, wet hanging area, storage cupboards, shelves, mirror, and opening portlight.</p>
<p>AFT CABIN - Aft to port fitted with a double berth, hanging locker, storage shelves, opening portlight, and engine access panel.</p>
