On 7th September 2010, the Dehler-Race-Day at the ORCi World Championships in Flensburg, North Germany, Dehler Yachts of Freienohl and the design-office Judel/Vrolijk & Co took the opportunity to present the latest project to engaged international competitors: The new Dehler 41.

The performance cruiser racer will be very competitive under the ORC and IRC rules and its design and engineering will provide very good all-round qualities. As well the 41 will be a beautiful, fast and easy to handle cruising yacht.

After carefully studying the competition in the 38 and 45 foot range, Judel/Vroiljk & Co under the guidance of famous head-designer Rolf Vrolijk started to develop this new boat and now published first ideas and basic numbers. The boat will be equipped with a different keel/sail plan/gear-setup, to cater for the different types of use, and customers needs. So the Dehler 41 could be a safe fast cruising yacht, an easy to handle club racer and a high competitive racer for international events. The multiple purpose usage is Dehler’s strategy for all models.

de41_web3 The tooling research process by the yard, interior layouts, equipment and modern and effective building processes is not completely finished yet, but this boat will not only be competitive on the water in both, racing and cruising, it will also be very competitive in price. Latest calculations shows a first pricing under 180.000 Euros (LM 77,274) ex Vat for the standard boat.

The launch date is not fixed yet because of ongoing researches and fine tuning works. As well capacities of model building could be a limiting factor. But Dehler representatives and a lot of interested customers want to see the boat sailing in 2011.

Comar Yachts will be at the Genoa boat show with its complete range and will also be presenting three new yachts: Comet 21od, Comet 33s, Comet 35s. Meanwhile designers are working on the 73 to 100 foot projects.

The Comet 21 one design will be presented officially for the first time in Genova. She represents real innovation and is leading the way for the new models that will satisfy the market’s demands in the 21 to 30 foot segment. Designed by Sergio Lupoli, who is also responsible for the Comet 25 and 30, the C21 is attractive, fast and fun with her bright red hull. The C21 is the smallest boat produced by Comar Yachts and since being showcased on the website (www.comaryachts.it>C21) has attracted vast interest from international and Italian sailors. While still in the testing phase, the C21 took part in select races showing all her indomitable character. The perfect crew is three and the C21 stands out as one of the most interesting performance small boats in her range.

Also in Genova the Comet 33s in its new performance configuration: less displacement, open stern and more complete deck gear to ensure better sailing performance without sacrificing comfort, an aspect that has made the Comet 33 a successful yacht greatly appreciated throughout Europe.

The Comet 35s designed by Studio Vallicelli, completes the sport line that was born with the Comet 51 and has continued with the Comet 45, 41 and 38. Sleek water lines, contained deckhouse, all manoeuvres running back to cockpit, the Comet 35 lives up to expectations also regarding the interiors, two cabins, a large square foldable table, galley, chart and navigation area and one head.

Comar is showcasing the following models in Genova 2009:

Comet 21od - 33s – 35s - 38s - 41s - 45s - 52rs - 62rs
