2006 DUFOUR 44,

Dufour 44 from 2006:

With a Volvo Penta D2 55 HP and only 750 engine hours,

This is a "Cruising Racer" type sailboat that can be maneuvered alone, it is a very good performer both upwind and downwind (Apart from X Yachts and J, there aren't many that go faster), it is highly maneuverable, with a very fine touch on the helm.
The keel is made of lead unlike classic cruising sailboats and the through-deck mast mounted on the keel makes it very stiff under sail and very responsive.
It is a very seaworthy boat, very safe in rough weather,
It is equipped with the necessary reinforcements and attachments for a removable stay.

The rigging was renewed in June 2021, two years ago:

-The genoa furler replaced with a new one: FACNOR LS200, identical to the original.
- The stay, and 2 shrouds replaced
- The LAZY BAG and the "Crystal" of the 2023 bimini new!
- The bimini and the dodger were replaced in October 2017
- The backstay was replaced in May 2016
- The Sail Drive seal has not been replaced, it was checked by the shipyard which concluded that it did not need changing
- The engine maintenance was done by a professional mechanic (oil changes / oil filter / replacement of the impeller),
- The boat is equipped with a 3-blade folding J PROP propeller.
- The genoa is not very old, replaced about 4 years ago, it is a genoa from DELTA VOILES, the mainsail is a very strong sail with 2 reefs from ETTORE YACHTING, it could use a wash, but it is in good condition and very performant.
-Only one owner of the boat, bought new and delivered on May 17, 2007.
