Description: Delphia D40
Red Knot is an ocean going, quality built and well-presented Delphia 40 with a stunning 2pac burgundy hull. She boasts Delphia's later fitout seen on the 2010-13 models, launched in Australia 2011/2012 with many upgraded features including a 55 hp Volvo engine and bow thruster which makes reversing into a berth an easier task.
We have cruised and raced Red Knot over the past 10 years and have been living and working aboard since 2022. She is easy to sail single handed or two up with all the controls coming back to the cockpit including single point reefing for the mainsail and an electric winch to make the hardest tasks a breeze. Included in the sale are 3 spinakers all in excellent condition. With a 4kva diesel genset, ducted heater and airconditioning, solar and shade, Red Knot is a very comfortable home on the water.
One of the most valuable additions has been a Garmin Panoptix Front-Vu Transducer which allows you to see the contours of the ocean bed in front of Red Knot up to 8 times the depth of the water. For example if we are in 10 metres of water, we can see the contours 40 metres in front. This has been very handy when exploring the great barrier reef, allowing us to confidently anchor closer to shore.
A tender and outboard are included in the sale.
