The Dufour f39 is a 39.3ft masthead sloop designed by German Frers and built in fiberglass by Dufour Yachts (FRA) between 1984 and 1983.
The Dufour f39 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a coastal cruiser. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a short water supply range.
