Owners Comments

Only for sale as I have my eye on another boat! If that doesn’t work out I would be very happy to sail this Dufour 2800 next season and am continuing with winter maintenance as usual.
Easy to sail in any conditions as it is fitted with a Sailtainer In-boom furling system with rigid rod kicker. This In-boom furling system means you get an efficient Fully Battened mainsail with the convenience of infinitely variable reefing/furling - I will miss this on my next boat!
Currently stored ashore in Plymouth for the winter. Standing rigging last changed 2005, so as I intended to keep this yacht I have the mast down, with new wire standing rigging being fitted this month on a preventative maintenance basis.
