WindCheck is great – it’s important! It helps create the community of sailors. We wouldn’t get all of this timely and relevant information pulled together anywhere else.

This Dufour is set up for the cruising sailor who wants to extract the max amount of performance while maintaining simplicity and comfortable-cockpit sailing for a couple or solo sailor. In 2023 she got a turbo-charged the rig with a new mast and boom and added roughly 30 percent more sail area. He added a Harken self tacking jib system, Harken headstay, vang and primaries and all new Quantum CDX performance sails. All on top of a spacious 3 cabin lay out! A true wolf in sheeps clothing!

Well-maintained, much-loved boat looking for a good home. Included in the price are a 2023 Fairclough canvas winter cover and frame, mooring, Doyle main and 130% genoa, Doyle stack-pack and a cruising spinnaker, full cockpit cushions. Many extras as well. Needs updating with electronics. 15hp Yanmar 2GM diesel engine. She is in sail away condition. Located at City Island Yacht Club (NY) - must see.

Power Boats

True North 38

The 2004 True North 38 is a versatile and elegantly designed downeast-style cruiser, renowned for its blend of classic New England aesthetics and modern performance. Built by Pearson Composites in Rhode Island, the True North 38 features a distinctive reverse transom and sweeping sheer line, giving it a timeless, traditional appearance. Pearson constructed the hull using advanced composite materials for strength and weight efficiency, and it’s repowered (2014) by a single inboard Yanmar 6LY2A.

Sail Boats

Dufour 40e Performance

This Dufour 40E has been fully offshore prepared for Newport-Bermuda Race, large compliment of offshore equipment, extensive sail inventory. The open cockpit and twin wheel set up are ideal for racing or cruising, a rare find in this price range. The target set for architect Umberto Felci and the Dufour Yachts Design Office was to come up with something even better than the Dufour 40. What a challenge! And they more than came up with the goods! Its many qualities speak for themselves.
