Lots of extras, practical details: Delphia 16
The two Polish shipyards Delphia and Marine have launched two universal dinghies that appeal to a wide audience

The Polish shipyard leader Delphia brings the Delphia 16 as an angular boat with dents and coaming. Gennaker, furling headsail and trapeze are extras. Thanks to these features and the large cockpit, the rather stiff boat is also well suited for training and travelling sailing. Closed storage space also contributes to this. With a hull length of 5.80 metres, the 80 centimetre longer Mariner 19, on the other hand, is much simpler, but is also aimed at beginners, families and cruising sailors.
