Engine: The 1800 can have either an outboard engine, with a cut out in the rear of the cockpit for mounting the outboard or an 7 - 10hp inboard, mounted behind the companionway steps driving a shaft emerging through a stub in front of rudder.

Introduced in 1979 as a successor to the Dufour 25, 200 boats were produced until production ceased in 1982.  It accommodates four people, with a forecabin and two berths in the saloon. There is extensive dry lined storage below the saloon berths. The heads is between the forecabin and saloon, has the head to starboard with a hanging locker space behind and an hand basin to port. There is a half size chart table to starboard at the foot of the companionway, with a small galley area to port.  Originally supplied with a two burner stove, with the gas bottle attached below, many have had a cooker with oven installed.  The saloon table is stored below the starboard berth and can be fitted into clips on the foreword bulkhead, or either to port or starboard into clips behind the saloon cushion backs. It can also be used in the cockpit, fitting into the lower half of he companionway door.

The 7/8th fractional rig, with swept back spreaders, carries a 135% headsail (16.5 sq m) and a tall mainsail (14.2 sq m).
