Full Details
From the Owner
The Duffy 35 is an excellent, sea-worthy design with her built-down hull and beautiful shear, and Cahoots is a very special Duffy 35. She has given us 10 years of wonderful cruising experiences and has been a pure joy to own. No matter the conditions, and there have been a few sporty days, she has never let me down. She also gets compliments on her good looks in virtually every port she has visited from New England to the Carolinas! Once I was approached by a curious boater in Beaufort, NC, asking what she is powered with, etc. After explaining her pedigree he concluded, “So, an American engine... built in Maine, I guess she is an American Beauty”. And she is!
