The Dehler 36 DB stands as a definitive marker in the evolution of the performancecruiser, representing a period when Dehler Yachts sought to dominate the International Measurement System (IMS) racing circuit while maintaining a semblance of offshore civility. Launched in the late 1980s and designed by the esteemed van de Stadt Design, the "DB" (often associated with the Deutsche Bank sponsorship of the era's racing team) was the highperformance sibling to the more cruisingoriented Dehler 36 CWS. While both shared a potent hull form, the DB was stripped of the "Central Winch System" in favor of a traditional, ergonomically optimized racing cockpit and a more sophisticated fractional rig. This model helped cement the Dehler Yachts history as a builder capable of producing worldbeating racing machines that did not completely sacrifice the amenities required for a weekend cruise.
