  • Design 270 - Our Blue Dream
  • Our Blue Dream, a 37.0m. (121.6') sloop, is the latest in a 15-boat Dubois sequence that began 12 years ago with Aquel II and which has continually strengthened the much sought after marriage between performance and luxury.

    Tank testing at the Wolfson Unit has produced a weatherly and fast hull which was further tuned through wind tunnel testing of the full-size keel that is deeper and has a narrower chord length than those of her predecessors and so delivers better stability and lift.
