I'm just getting into sailboats and have really fallen in love with boats from the 70s up to the mid 90s.. the Defour boats from what I've read online are roomy like European boats are with a headroom over 6 feet..plenty of people who have sailed the 35 to 40 foot boats saying that they were never worried when sailing in rough seas.. everyone claims they are very well and strong built..
How do you like the Dufour 500? Different price points, but put that aside. .. Looking at a couple of them.

Excellent video. Some great boats for sure.
They were the first ones to place the galley just before the v-birth, I think (grand large)…?. Very interesting. Like their boats too.
I’d like to see a video on setting up a jeanneau 349 for blue water or at least coastal cruising.
I really like the Dufour 45 Classic but they are hard to find and too old to finance now.
Do X yachts.
