Broker Remarks

This 1981 Dehler Delanta 78 (26 feet) was designed by Van de Stadt. There were over 300 of these boats built and she is certainly a sturdy, family cruiser. Her inventory includes a (2015) Beta 20HP diesel engine with only 540 hours, 2016 mainsail, 2014 furling headsail, 2015 cockpit enclosure, five berths, 2013 colour chart-plotter, marine toilet and more. She is in exceptionally good condition and really is excellent value!

Owner's Comments

‘Symphony’ is in her fourth ownership. She has been well maintained and has been substantially upgraded. I found her to be a safe and solidly built Van de Stadt design. Her 45% ballast ratio has always been a comfort to me.


Broker's Comment

"Symphony" is an easy boat to sail single-handed and is an extremely capable mini-cruiser and represents, outstanding value for money. She has been wintered ashore for many years and is worth traveling to view.
