Dehler 38 SQ is built on vacuum-infused construction and a relatively light displacement combined with a deep keel, providing good stability and an efficient hull. The result is a boat that sails with high precision and rewards active trimming, while being forgiving enough to handle even with a smaller crew.
This boat is equipped in the SQ version (Speed & Quality), which means a higher specification level with a focus on sailing characteristics and functionality. Dehler’s Quick Reefing System allows for reefing and sail handling directly from the cockpit, making the boat practical to sail shorthanded without compromising control. The sail wardrobe from Quantum, with a performance mainsail, jib, and gennaker with CX system, offers good opportunities to adapt the boat to both conditions and ambition levels. Together with an electric winch and well-thought-out deck layout, the boat is rigged for active use, not just for cruising.
The navigation equipment consists of a complete and consistent B&G system with dual plotters, Triton displays, autopilot with remote control, AIS, and radar. This is a level normally found on boats intended for longer voyages or more advanced navigation, providing good redundancy and overview onboard.
The interior follows Dehler’s well-known line with a focus on functionality and durability. Three cabins and a spacious saloon offer practical usability for both family and crew, while solutions like UniDoor in the wet room and consistent material choices show that the boat is built for regular use.
This particular example stands out by being well-equipped and in very good condition. Internally, the boat gives a very fresh impression with well-preserved surfaces and upholstery, and even on deck, it appears well-maintained. For buyers seeking a modern 38-footer with real sailing capabilities, this is a very interesting option.
