Dufour 45e
5 / 15 - score 56%
The Dufour 45e is a 45.76ft fractional sloop designed by Umberto Felci & Patrick Roséo and built in fiberglass by Dufour Yachts (FRA) since 2008.
It accomodates 10 people in 4 cabins plus salon.
The Dufour 45e is a light sailboat which is a very high performer. It is reasonably stable / stiff and has a good righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a fast cruiser. The fuel capacity is average. There is a good water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top half. It might be a good tradeoff.
