'Gusto' is a 2016 Dehler 38 listed exclusively for sale with YOTI on Sydney Harbour.
This one owner Dehler 38 represents the perfect balance of performance, comfort, and craftsmanship. Built by the respected German yard, the brand is known for its sharp sailing characteristics and premium build quality.
'Gusto' is a well specified example with thoughtful upgrades that enhance both ease of handling and sailing capability. There is an electric halyard winch for easy sail main hoisting. B&G instruments include auto-pilot. Main and genoa are upgraded by Doyle plus there is a gennaker by Elvstrom.
This is the full three cabin layout with owners' cabin forward. The saloon seating is super comfortable, spacious and simply practical. The nav table slides for either a dedicated nav table / writing desk or allows for longer continuous seating or smaller additional berth. The head and shower space features the unique Dehler multifunction door which maximises space.
'Gusto' has been lightly used by her original owner having been twilight raced on Sydney Harbour and sailing over relaxed weekend days with family.
This is a high-performance cruiser which really ticks all boxes and is genuinely a step above most brands.
