???? General Description

The Dufour 39 CC is a monohull cruising sailboat, built in GRP (polyester / fiberglass) by Dufour Yachts (France). sailingtheweb.com

It was designed by naval architects Alain Mortain & Yannis Mavrikios (“CC” version).

The suffix “CC” means "Center Cockpit" — this type of layout often allows optimized interior volume, and an elevated cockpit with visibility and comfort.

It is a cruising-oriented sailboat, quite comfortable for sea outings, coastal navigation, or longer trips depending on equipment.

????️ Interior Layout & Comfort

The 39 CC typically offers 2 double cabins + convertible saloon, providing sleeping for 6 to 7 persons depending on layout.

A shower room, marine toilet, kitchen (galley), and convivial living space are available — making it suitable for coastal or offshore cruising.

The center cockpit is an asset for safety and comfort at sea: better protection from elements, good layout for maneuvers and onboard living.

⚓ Sea Behavior & Usage

The Dufour 39 CC is considered safe and stable, well-balanced, with good sailing qualities. Even at moderate heel, it remains comfortable and maneuverable.

It can suit coastal navigation but also longer cruises — comfort, water and fuel storage capacity, and interior space make it a good compromise for a small crew or family.

The layout (center cockpit, spacious saloon, double cabins) makes onboard life enjoyable, even for several days at sea.

✅ Intended For / Usage

The Dufour 39 CC targets sailors seeking a versatile sailboat:

for coastal cruises or weekend trips along the coasts,

for family or friends outings, with good onboard comfort,

for “tour Europe / long holidays” trips if well-maintained equipment.

It combines ease of handling (simple rigging, center cockpit) with affordable onboard living for 4 to 6 people, or slightly more. More information and photos on the website xboat.fr
