Accommodation
- Despite its racing pedigree, the Dehler 30 One Design offers a surprisingly livable interior for a 30-footer.
- Heading below, rather than the spartan racing interior one might expect, the layout feels far more like a modern cruiser, with trademark Dehler off-white, grey, and red trim, wood laminate saloon bench seating, and a centerline table.
- Standing headroom reaches 1.82 m, and the boat sleeps six across a double V-berth forward, two aft quarter berths, and two salon settees.
- All berths measure two meters or longer, a deliberate priority for the design team.
- The galley sits to starboard and can accommodate a portable refrigerator, while the enclosed head is located to port for privacy.
- The galley features a gas stove with electric ignition, sink with foot pump, and 12V outlet.
- Interior components are lightweight and removable, allowing the boat to transition quickly from cruising mode to race-ready configuration.
- White GRP sandwich bulkheads create a bright, open atmosphere, while the open-plan salon and ring-frame gateway to the forepeak further enhance the sense of space.
- The result is a practical interior that serves its crew well offshore without carrying unnecessary weight.

Sails and Rigging Overview
- On the water, the Dehler 30 One Design delivers performance that far exceeds what most sailors expect from a 30-foot yacht.
- The deck-stepped carbon mast stands 13.18 m tall, paired with a square-top mainsail and extended aluminum boom built to the class limits.
- A composite bowsprit with bobstay supports both the gennaker and Code Zero, while the inner forestay allows a staysail to be deployed for both upwind and offshore sailing.
- Twin adjustable backstays provide precise rig tuning, while the cockpit layout keeps every control line within easy reach for efficient short-handed sailing.
- Reviewers have noted speeds exceeding 14 knots under sail while maintaining excellent control in offshore conditions.
