Both available with steering wheel or a tiller, she is easy to be sailed and manoeuvred single handed. Standard she comes with a mainsail tackle on the roof, to liberate the full length cockpit seats. Fine tune trimming is possible with a track in the cockpit.
The Dufour 325 Grand' Large has quite a deep standard draft of 1.85 m, ideal for good performance,
or she comes with a keel of 1.55 m, for shallower waters.

Reviews and testimonial
This is a good looking boat from every angle.... Umberto Felci has succeeded in producing an attractive hull shape that would grace any mooring while French designer Patrick Roséo has done a fine job on the deck and interior design.
Great feeling of space and light, thanks to generous roof and hull port-lights and hatches. Extensive use of Moabi mahogany and wood-panelled floor adds to the rich feel below while solid wood fiddles, mouldings and framings give a real sense of security.
Strong NW winds gusting 30 knots are far from ideal for any boat test but the 325 was well up to scratch. With two reefs in the main and the genoa semi-furled, she clipped along at over seven knots an a broad reach without any difficulty and responded easily on the helm.
Verdict:
Plenty of well-appointed boat for your money.
