Dehler 38 SQ Speed meets Quality

It is a very special yacht, that takes the tradition of the original performance cruiser into the future with all new innovations. A yacht, that adheres to this tradition with its name already: the Dehler 38SQ.

Breathtaking: the new design.

Even sleeker lines, an even sportier look, greatly enlarged hull windows – and a bowsprit that is perfectly integrated into the aerodynamic design.

Dynamic: performance as desired.

Take your pick from several rig and sail options. Maximise the sailing performance with premium winches and a square-top sail.

Unique: the interior.

The exquisite surfaces, the variety of layouts and the brightness of the cabins leave nothing to be desired.

The standard version of the Dehler 38SQ features a spacious owner’s cabin in the bow, while the stern is divided into a storage space and a second double cabin. Alternatively, the storage space can be built as a third double cabin. The cabins can be outfitted with lightweight furnishings as desired.

Dehler Uni Door: Clever concept

One door for two frames makes it possible to use the space as you wish. Simply choose which areas should be separated from each other.

Saloon table: Pure flexibility

While the one table top is in use, the other can be folded down to offer free passageway through the saloon – or vice versa.

Clear space: For all your items

Whatever you decide to take on board, you will have plenty of space in the generous drawers, overhead cabinets, wardrobes and storage boxes.

The engine: Always accessible

The engine is situated below the companionway and is noise-isolated. It can be maintained from both the companionway as well as from the aft cabins.
