ENGLISH 14/05/2014 7/87 DUFOUR 560 Grand Large INTRODUCTION DUFOUR YACHTS is pleased to present you with this Manual which will help you get to know your boat better. This Manual has been produced to help you use your boat safely and enjoyably. It contains details of the boat, the equipment supplied or fitted, its systems and information about their use. Read it carefully and familiarize yourself with the boat before using it. This Owner’s Manual is not a course in sailing safety or seamanship. If this is your first boat, or you are changing to a type of boat you are unfamiliar with, for your convenience and safety, make sure you gain experience handling and using it before taking command. Your agent, your national sailing or cruising federation or your yacht club will be happy to give you information about sailing schools or qualified instructors in your area. Ensure that forecast wind and sea conditions correspond to the design category of your boat, and that you and your crew are capable of handling the boat in these conditions. Even when your boat is suitable for them, the sea and wind conditions corresponding to design categories A, B, and C vary from severe storm for category A to severe conditions for the top end of category C, subject to dangers of abnormal gusts or waves; these are dangerous conditions in which only an experienced, trained crew in good condition, sailing a properly-maintained boat, can sail in a satisfactory manner. This Owner's Manual is not a detailed maintenance or repair guide. In the event of problems, consult the boatbuilder or their representative. If a maintenance manual is provided, be sure to use it. Always employ the services of an experienced professional for maintenance, fitting accessories, or modifications. Modifications that could affect the characteristics of the boat must be assessed, performed and documented by qualified personnel. The boatbuilder cannot be held responsible for modifications made without their approval. In certain countries, a skipper's license or some form of authorization is required, or special rules and regulations are applicable. Always maintain your boat correctly and make allowance for deterioration due to age or resulting, where applicable, from heavy or unsuitable use. Any boat, however sturdy it is, can be severely damaged if it is used incorrectly. This is incompatible with safe sailing. Always suit your speed and heading to the prevailing sea conditions. If your boat is equipped with a life-raft, read its instruction manual carefully. The crew must have on board all the safety equipment (life-jackets, harnesses, etc.) corresponding to the type of boat, weather conditions, etc. In some countries, this equipment is mandatory. The crew must be familiarized with the use of all the safety equipment and with emergency safety procedures (man overboard recovery, towing, etc.); training sessions are regularly organized by sailing schools and clubs. It is recommended that all persons wear appropriate buoyancy aids (life-jackets, personal flotation devices) when on deck. It should be noted that in certain countries, it is compulsory to wear a buoyancy aid (complying with national regulations) at all times. KEEP THIS MANUAL IN A SAFE PLACE AND PASS IT ON TO THE NEW OWNER IF YOU SELL THE BOAT. NOTICE: Our boats are regularly improved in the light of our customers’ experiences and researched by the shipyard, and so the specifications given in this Owner’s Manual are not contractually binding and may be changed without notice and without any obligation to update. This manual is intended to cover as much information as possible, so certain equipment or paragraphs might not apply to your boat. In case of doubt, please refer to the inventory which should have been given to you by your agent when you placed your order. Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

ENGLISH 14/05/2014 8/87 DUFOUR 560 Grand Large I. GENERAL INFORMATION Design category Your DUFOUR 560 comes under the OCEAN-GOING design category A. Under conditions of normal use, your boat is designed to sail in waves with a significant height exceeding 4 m and winds of force 8 or above on the Beaufort scale, and to withstand the severest conditions.
