Description

The Dufour 36 Classic is one of the most popular family cruisers in the Dufour range. Designed by Mortain and Mavrikios, they created a perfect combination of being comfortably sailed by a couple or family, and huge interior volume for a yacht of her size. In only 4 years of manufacture, Dufour Yachts built over 400 of the 36 Classic hulls as they were so popular. The sloop rig fully battened mainsail and roller furling genoa give her a solid upwind performance. All control lines are led back to the cockpit for ease of handling and the helm gives a responsive feel. Piccolo has been well maintained by her current and previous owners. Recent upgrades include a synthetic teak side deck, Harken furler, and Eno gas hob. The standing rigging and sail drive seal are within their service dates, and the Volvo engine has been regularly professionally serviced. This really is a turn key package ready for sailing this summer! This Dufour 36 Classic is in excellent condition and is available for viewing in Mylor Yacht Harbour.
