DL Catamarans is a boatbuilder based on Lake Garda, Italy, setting the tone right from the start: only two models per year will be built! Suffice it to say that this compact aluminum powercat is designed to be exclusive.
The styling by Eryd also makes particularly skillful use of the material: the sharp, angular lines - especially the sheerline - shape the DL38’s distinctive personality.
As for the hulls, the builder claims excellent seaworthiness and high performance, with speeds exceeding 40 knots. A central foil and two aft fins were integrated from the very beginning of the project. The interior layout is minimalist while still offering generous deck space. The aft-open cockpit cleverly incorporates the powerful outboard engines and features modular sunpads.
