1997 Dehler 41 CR

The Dehler 41 CR is a 1997 cruising sailboat designed by Judel/Vrolijk and built by Dehler Yachtbau. At 41 feet long with a 12.8-foot beam and 8,300 kg displacement, it balances stability with sailing performance. The hull was stripped and re-treated with epoxy in 2021. The rigging is new Dyform throughout.

The deck is fully equipped for cruising and offshore work. Harken winches handle the genoas, with electric halyard winches and a mast winch for handling sails. The boat carries a genoa, high-aspect headsail, and gennaker. Harken Black Magic and Lewmar blocks were installed in 2023. The cockpit features a teak-covered bench, inboard table with built-in cooler, and a fixed glass sprayhood with removable fabric extension.

Below deck, three cabins provide accommodation with six berths across the interior, finished in mahogany with white polyester trim. Two heads and a shower serve the accommodation. The galley includes an oven, microwave, and refrigerator with freezer. Hot and cold water systems are installed, and cabin heating runs via an Eberspächer D5LC heater.

A 48 hp Yanmar diesel powers the boat through a shaft drive with Variprop propeller; the shaft was recently serviced and engine insulation renewed. Navigation and electronics center on a Raymarine system: i70 displays for speed, depth, and wind; Evolution EV-1 autopilot; Quantum 2 radar installed in 2021; e125 plotter; and AIS 650. Additional instruments include Furuno GPS and Navtex Nasa Clipper. Electrical systems comprise a 74 AH starter battery and two 196 AH service batteries both from 2025, with 220V and 12V outlets, solar charging, and a 2020 Mastervolt charger.
