In accordance with the rules of the Performance deck plans, the mainsail clew is fixed at the back of the cockpit and controlled by two winches “German Systemâ€. The coaming primaries control genoa and downwind sails. The halyard manoeuvres are well arranged on the roof.
The Dufour 530 features a revolutionary cockpit with unobstructed access steps to the side decks. Also, they separate the manoeuvring and seating areas for the greatest comfort of passengers. The sunbed is enhanced with the new rear bed and its storage box, a Dufour exclusive.
