On a Dehler, great sailing comfort is part of the basic equipment.
Ergonomic plotter pods are positioned behind each steering wheel.

Full cockpit: One-handed control
All sheets can be led directly to the helm via the six winches integrated as standard.
Hidden ropes: Clear deck
You will immediately notice the tidy and clear deck layout. This is particularly thanks to the rope guidance integrated into the deck and out of sight.
Three skylights: More daylight
Sporty optics on the outside, daylight on the inside. Thanks to three skylights, the sun radiates into the interior of your Dehler.

Large windows and skylights allow a lot of daylight to flood the saloon.
Design your Dehler 34 to your own preferences - with floorings, furniture wood, worktop and upholstery.
The central area of the interior provides many remarkable ways of using space efficiently
The Dehler 34 features a bow cabin with open bulkhead, while the stern is divided into storage space and a second double cabin. As an alternative, the bow can be built as a closed owner’s cabin.
The saloon seating area is freely accessible from the galley.
The headrests are flexible and can be moved or removed to your liking.
Elegantly rounded corners, perfectly harmonised colours and soft lighting pamper you below deck.
While one table top is in use, the other can be folded down to offer free passageway through the saloon – or vice versa.
From the movable navigation table, everything is within reach: the on-board electrical equipment, radio device and plotter.
Open the hatch in the centre of the table - it's the perfect place for reading glasses or the favourite box of chocolates.
Try to find all the cleverly hidden storage spaces throughout the saloon.
The saloon cabinets with their distinctive curves open upwards in a practical fashion.
Style the harmonious and elegantly shaped interior according to your preferences.
The colour of the worktop can be just as individual as the choice of wood and flooring.

The galley provides all you need when cooking.
Open both sides of the tabletop and the saloon becomes a dining area seating six or more guests.

Whatever you decide to take on board, there is plenty of space in the generous drawers, overhead cabinets, wardrobes, and storage boxes.
We are proud of our Dehler Uni Door Concept, which always gives you a choice between two room layouts.

Around the washbasin, there is enough space to place all your toiletries.
The Smart Light System lets you synchronise lights in the owner’s cabin to your desired brightness.
