Owners Comments

"Shofa" is a very nice example of the Dufour Arpege. She has a practical sea going internal layout which makes the most of her wide beam, The saloon features two settee berths with raised outer berths. there are two further single berth aft by the companionway, the heads are located forward of the saloon, and there is a large store area in the bow.

Her present owner purchased in 2024 but sadly has health issues, hence a reluctant sale. French Marine motors have recently carried out an overhaul of the engine (full breakdown available)
