Ce que couvre cette vidéo
The Dufour 37, tested off La Rochelle, France, in autumn 2022, measures under 10 meters in length despite its model name.Watch While marketed as a 37-footer, the hull dimensions align more closely with a 33- or 34-foot vessel.0:21 The boat features a wide beam and significant hull stability, requiring a substantial sail plan to maintain speed in lighter conditions.0:37 Performance during testing proved surprisingly capable, aided by an upgraded sail inventory including a gennaker and a Code Zero.0:51 The design prioritizes interior volume, highlighted by an exceptionally large forward owner’s cabin and a spacious saloon with benches pushed to the hull sides to accommodate a large central table.1:12 The galley includes two sinks and a deep, top-loading refrigerator.2:24 While the aft cabins offer generous berth space, they suffer from limited natural light.1:54 The interior finish uses oak and modular construction techniques, resulting in a clean, bright aesthetic that avoids an entry-level feel.1:35
