The Dufour 40 E, or "Evolution," represents a refined iteration of the wildly successful Dufour 40, a design that famously secured the IMS World Championship and multiple "Boat of the Year" accolades. Launched in late 2009 as a 2010 model, the 40 E was tasked with a difficult objective: improving upon a hull that many considered the benchmark for the "cruiser-racer" category. Designed by Umberto Felci in collaboration with Patrick Roséo for the interior, the 40 E transitioned the model into a more modern era, replacing the massive single wheel of its predecessor with a twin-wheel configuration and updating the deck mold to improve ergonomics for both racing crews and cruising families. This model served as a cornerstone of the Dufour Performance range, offering a stiffer, more responsive alternative to the builder's more voluminous Grand Large cruising line.
