The Dufour 34, after having been crowned European Boat of the Year at the January Dsseldorf Boat Show, also excels at this years edition of the Copa del Rey! In the IMS 670 Class a Dufour 34 Quim won the event but at the same time there were 4 Dufour 34s amongst the first five boats 1st, 3rd, 4th ,5th ! Details and more information can be found on the Copa del Rey website: www.copadelrey.com
What makes this achievement even more impressive is that these were all private boats without the slightest adaptation to the standard configuration, in other words strictly standard as delivered by the yard and sailed by their owners, all amateur crews.
This is the best possible and imaginable present for Dufours 40th anniversary, an anniversary that the yard is celebrating with a special limited edition available as from September 04 these boats, a limited number of only 40 units with have an upgraded interior and deck gear are available in the recently launched range of the Dufour 34, Dufour 40, Dufour 44 and Dufour 385 Grandlarge.

etc...
