Introduction
This manual has been written and compiled to make it possible
for you to use your sailing yacht, a DEHLER 25, in a safe and
pleasant way.
Apart from many details regarding the yacht itself, the manual
also contains details about the equipment supplied or integrated
fittings and information on its use and maintenance, in addition
to the information given by the manufacturer. Please read the
manual through carefully and get familiar with everything before
you go sailing with your yacht.
We recommend that you make copies of the important parts of
the manual and of some of the manufacturer’s information, such
as instructions about maintenance and warnings, so as to have
them handy on board in case you need to find out the cause of a
technical fault quickly and remedy it.
We hope you will enjoy your new DEHLER 25 and wish you
good luck and safe sailing.
An owner’s manual however can never replace the knowledge of seamanship which is
necessary.
An Owner’s Manual is a technical document which gives you a general description of the
yacht and its technical systems. It helps the skipper/sailor to handle and maintain the yacht
and its systems safely, identify possible technical faults and sometimes even to rectify these
faults himself. Furthermore it is to the advantage of the owner to undertake maintenance and
servicing of the Dehler 36 and thus maintain its value.
The shipyard reserves the right to carry out changes in equipment and technique. The systems
represented in this manual should not be considered a basis for the sales contract. In this
respect you should use the construction specifications and the relevant price list for the
purchase of your yacht.
PLEASE KEEP THIS MANUAL IN A SAFE PLACE AND GIVE IT TO THE
NEW OWNER, IF YOU SELL THE YACHT.

Stick on notices - List
List of the most important information, indicated by stick on notices.
Observance of the notices is very important for both the boat and its crew. Non-observance of
the notices can lead to total loss of the boat and problems for the crew. As the skipper
responsible for the boat’s safety you should inform new crew members about the notices and
their meaning.

Design Category
One of the requirements of the EC Directive on Pleasure Craft is that every boat must belong
to a specific design category.
The yacht type DEHLER 25 belongs to Design Category B.
The Directive describes Design Category B as follows:
Design Category B: Non coastal navigtion waves up to 4m, wind forces up to 8 Bft.
Designed for trip away from coast with possible weather conditions of wind force up to 8
and waves up to 4m high.
Identification
For a yacht of this size the EC Directive only provides for Aa module certification. This
means that the manufacturer certifies the conformity of its construction and equipment with
the directive, but that its stability needs to be tested by a recognised testing institute. The
„Germanische Lloyd“ (Abbreviation GL), one of the testing institutes authorised by the EC
Directive, was in charge of testing; see the Statement of Conformity on page 12.
The hull identification number was stamped in the gel coat on the surface of the starboard side
of the boat. This is a worldwide unique succession of numbers and letters. For example:
DEDEH 58011B101
This succession of numbers and letters comprises the following data:
DE Germany, Country of Origin
DEH Unique Shipyard Code
(the Register is kept by the German Boat and Shipbuilders’ Association)
58 Designated Type as chosen by the shipyard
11 Serial Construction Number
B Start of Construction Month February
1 2001, when construction started

Dear Owner,
Your DEHLER 25 has been built and fitted
out with the utmost care. We wish you
many relaxing and pleasurable hours of
sailing in her. An essential prerequisite for
this, of course, is proper handling and a
little care and attention. For a brand new
boat minor finishing touches will be
required. Experience dictates that it takes
some time to make a new boat entirely
your own and fit it out in accordance with
your expectations. We will of course be
happy to offer advice and assistance with
this. In addition to some general
information regarding the boat you receive
comprehensive material for the assembly
parts. We advise you first to familiarize
yourself thoroughly with everything.
All types of DEHLER 25 come up to the
basic security needs conformable to rule
94/25/EG for pleasure vessels for design
category "B". The sail territory is not
limited. As prerequisite the helmsman
needs to have sufficient sailing experience
to cope with any problems he might
encounter - even in rough weather.
We ask you to familiarize yourself as well
as your crew with the most important
notices in the yacht. Advise your crew
regarding the security notices.
One more thing: Please train reefing
manoevres in breeze so that there will be
no problems in strong wind.
Please do familiarize yourself thoroughly
with your yacht's capabilities, so as to
avoid getting into difficulty due to
ignorance or foolhardiness, as the saying
goes: "God helps the sailor in peril, but the
sailor must do the steering".
Happy sailing in your new DEHLER 25 -
and good luck!
