Dehler

Willie Dehler's enthusiasm for yachting resulted in the establishment of Dehler Yachtbau in Dortmund, where advancements in fiberglass technology led to iconic creations like the Varianta. Known for speed and comfort, Dehler became Germany's largest yacht producer in the 70s and 80s. The Dehler 34, released in 1986, earned the moniker "VW Beetle for Yachtsmen." Despite financial hardships, the brand thrives under Hanse Yachts, maintaining its identity and engineering excellence. Models such as the Dehler 38 continue to win accolades. Featuring swift designs with carbon fiber frames, Dehler remains at the forefront of cruising yachts from 29 to 42 feet, based on the German Baltic coast.
