Hanse Dehler 38SQ Monohull Sailing Yacht, New Boat Price $413,700

The Hanse Dehler 38SQ monohull sailing yacht from Germany, priced at around $413,700, is an 11-meter-long boat that has been completely upgraded in terms of performance and design, with a number of new features to provide owners with even more diverse options. In the naming of the boat, “SQ” stands for “Speed and Quality”, two letters that perfectly illustrate the core concept of the boat.

The Hanse Dehler 38SQ monohull introduces a new color scheme and optimized deck and interior design. The new model has a more modern deckhouse design and a more varied interior layout to meet the needs of different uses. The model introduces a square top mainsail, a design that makes it not only a comfortable cruising sailboat, but also a great performer in racing. The racing version of the Dehler 38SQ model is equipped with a split backstay and a 10 cm increase in mast height for increased agility when sailing.

A highlight of the Hanse Dehler 38SQ is the square top mainsail design, which allows the boat to react quickly in the face of light wind pressure and turn it into propulsion. The extra area of the square top is located at the top of the sail, allowing for efficient utilization of the wind even in light winds. In addition, the Race version has been adjusted in terms of draft depth and displacement to make it even more impressive in terms of performance.

In terms of sailing performance, this monohull shows great sensitivity and stability. Even in winds up to 12 knots, this model can sail upwind at a GPS speed of 7 knots. The mainsail adjustment is particularly important in winds over 10 knots, where the aft halyard is adjusted to optimize the sail shape and thus the sailing efficiency. The rudder remains smooth in steering even when the boat is leaning heavily, making this sailboat easy to handle in all wind conditions.

The Hanse Dehler 38SQ monohull's deck is well laid out, with maneuvering areas that allow the crew to maneuver efficiently while leaving plenty of space for sunbathing. Inside, it continues the brand's consistently high-quality standards. Although there is no revolutionary breakthrough in design, details such as the curved covers are modern and create a comfortable and aesthetically pleasing interior. At 3.75 meters wide, she is not the widest in her class, but she is still very spacious inside, with a maximum height of 2 meters in both the fore and aft cabins, which is in line with the market position of modern yachts.
