The Dufour 29, launched in 1975, represents a pivotal era in French yacht design when Michel Dufour was refining the balance between a robust offshore cruiser and a competitive club racer. Designed by Michel Dufour himself, the vessel followed the success of the Arpège and the Safari 27, aiming to provide a more voluminous interior and improved performance in light airs. During its production run through 1980, nearly 300 units were built at the La Rochelle yard, solidifying its place as a staple of the European coastal cruising scene. The hull is constructed of solid hand-laid fiberglass, a hallmark of the Dufour Yachts legacy of durability, while the deck utilizes a balsa core for weight reduction and stiffness.
