Dufour 39CC

This was one of the smaller
Dufour & Sparkes models,
launched in 1990. Designed by
German Frers, she is a good-
looking, fast cruising design
with an elegant, well-balanced
profi le. She retains the Dufour
trademark double skin, but
the decor is all teak with a
high-gloss fi nish. She was sold
with a very good standard
inventory and the build quality
was high. She handles well
and has a good turn of
speed on all points of sail.
On the other hand, the
interior is a little cramped
and headroom is low.
