'Verve' is a 2016 Dehler 46, now exclusively for sale with YOTI and berthed on Pittwater.
Built in Germany by the acclaimed Dehler yard--part of the Hanse Group--Verve is a stunning example of the brand's flagship model. Known for producing high-quality, performance-oriented cruiser-racers, Dehler delivers precision, strength, and style--and Verve is no exception.
Originally commissioned by a Sydney-based sailor with a background in sports boats, Verve was carefully specified as the ideal crossover yacht: fast and competitive, yet comfortable and easy to cruise. The result is a beautifully balanced and versatile performance cruiser.
Her inventory reflects this dual purpose. Equipped with a comprehensive B&G electronics suite--including Zeus plotters at each helm, AIS, and electric winches for the mainsheet and cabin top--Verve was built with both ease and performance in mind. Recent upgrades include two new upwind jibs and a Code 0, and she also features a North Sails self-tacking jib with a dedicated track for effortless short-handed sailing.
This is the desirable three-cabin layout, though the port aft cabin is configured with a generous single berth--perfect for creating a flexible 'garage' space when needed for extra storage.
Kept under a full boat cover at RPAYC, Verve presents in excellent condition. She is clean, sharp, and clearly cared for--ready for her next owner to cruise, race, or both.
Contact Tim Vine at YOTI to arrange an inspection of this fast, safe, and immaculately presented Dehler 46.
